Visual Backend: Zapier for developers

2 pointsby johnyeocxover 1 year ago
Hey everyone! Before I get roasted, yes, I know, Zapier for developers sounds super counter intuitive, but the point I&#x27;m trying to make is that developers know code well, and if you need to build some automated workflow &#x2F; backend service, you know how to code it. The only problem is that starting an entire project from scratch is a little tedious, so you turn to Zapier, and it&#x27;s fast, but expensive. That&#x27;s where https:&#x2F;&#x2F;visual-backend.com comes in.<p>I made this tool to allow devs to build backend microservices really quickly, by auto generating all the boilerplate &amp; repetitive code like route config, setting up a client for external services, and even GPT generating code for well known APIs like Firebase, Stripe etc, allowing you to quickly write specific functions relevant to your service<p>I know what you might be thinking: a UI for backend dev, that sounds stupid af?? And I definitely agree, but by now I&#x27;ve used it to quickly churn out several small scale backends with such ease and speed that I really believe in its value, and so I hope you guys might be able to give it a chance, go create that todo app that we all know and love, and if you hate Visual Backend then, by all means haha<p>But all jokes aside, I&#x27;d really appreciate any feedback, especially on specific use cases &#x2F; niches that you think might truly benefit from this (been racking my brain trying to figure this one out for weeks to no avail) Cheers :)
