Hey all 👋🏻, it's Viktor here, creator of JustBackend.
Today, I'm excited to share JustBackend with you.
As a developer, I was constantly bogged down by database management and backend complexities.
I wanted something simpler, so I built JustBackend to replace conventional databases and let us focus on what we love — developing.
With JustBackend, you can manage records easily using a simple HTTP-based REST API.
Plus, there’s a beautiful dashboard to handle all your data and multiple projects in one place.
It's perfect for MicroSaaS projects, rapid prototyping, and quick mockups.
I've been using it daily, and it's made my development process much smoother by eliminating the need for database maintenance.
I'd love to hear your thoughts and any feedback you have.
Thanks!

@v_braun Hi Viktor,
Just came across JustBackend and the concept of a simpler backend solution is refreshing! As a developer myself, I'm curious to learn more about:
- Can JustBackend handle complex data structures or is it primarily focused on simpler schemas?
- How does JustBackend ensure data security and can it scale efficiently for growing applications?
If you're looking for collaborators in the future, my experience in API integration could potentially be valuable in areas like:
- Exploring ways to support more intricate data structures within JustBackend.
- Contributing to building robust security measures for user data and application access.
Overall, JustBackend seems like a promising solution for streamlining development workflows. I'd be happy to chat further and see how my skills might align with your vision.
Keep up the great work!
Best,
Max

Thank you so much, Max!
JustBackend is designed to help developers get started quickly and test out ideas with minimal hassle.
For more complex data structures or larger user bases, I highly recommend considering MongoDB or Postgres.
Currently, JustBackend supports storing and searching simple documents (nested), with a limit of 10,000 records per project.
The primary focus of JustBackend is on simplicity and rapid development, perfectly suited for bootstrapping an MVP and determining the viability of an idea.
Looking ahead, I plan to extend JustBackend horizontally with additional features, such as:
- WebSocket support: Addressing the challenges of running on edge with frameworks like NextJS, allowing your server to call a REST endpoint and delegate data to client browsers.
- Google Docs integration: Offering an alternative storage solution, ideal for simple data collection for surveys, waitlists, etc.
- Scheduled triggers: Enabling backend jobs by having JustBackend call your API on a predefined schedule.
- Other features are also on my roadmap.
I appreciate your interest and would love to connect for potential future collaborations.
Thanks again for your support and kind words!
Best,
Viktor
Stay safe!

@v_braun Thanks for your reply! Would it be convenient for you to contact via email or LinkedIn? I will be waiting for your profile where I could contact you
Congrats for launching @v_braun
Is it just CRUD API, or can the API have something like search by text logic?

@herryg91 Right now filtering for text by equal and for numbers by ranges (grater, less than, etc.) are possible.
I have a regex like and a AI based context (embeddings) search on my roadmap.

Simple HTTP REST API and easy record management sound fantastic. Perfect for quick projfects and prototyping.
Hmm... this is actually a great idea.
So far, people have mainly requested the feature to use Google Docs as a data store and just use JustBackend as the API access layer.
However, an export feature is definitely important, and I will prioritize adding it to the roadmap.
Thank you very much @sgroiga !

What a great idea. Now I can start developing without setting up a db layer in the first place.
