Create REST APIs for PostgreSQL databases in minutes.
- one man project (me) - been doing it well over a year now - no sponsorship, no investors, no backers, no nothing just my passion - I haven't even advertised much, this may first ir second time I'm sharing a link - On a weekdays im building a serious stuff with it - On weekends preparing a new major version with lessons learned from doing a real project with it
Not going to stop. But I migh be seeking sponsors in future, not sure how that will turn out. If not that's ok, I'm cool to be only user.
Typescript ORMz lol.
Soft deletes make indexing, well, problmatic to say at least. Use temporal tabls instead for point in time recovery. Nevertheless it could have been solved on a database level without any help from ORMs, lookup RLS. Still, screws up indexing strategy.

The project was call pgroutiner and it generated bunch of C# code for me out of PostgreSQL.
After doing couple of projects with it, I realized it wasn't enough. The new approach is a dynamic HTTTP REST API generation but, with plugin for code generation of frontend files (Typescript,. Javascript, HTTP files). This iw way better approach. Look it up, it's called npgsqlrest.github.io
