π¨ Your creative workspace for backend development
Craft beautiful Express.js & Flask backends with MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite support
- Express.js - Fast, unopinionated web framework for Node.js
- Flask - Lightweight WSGI web application framework for Python
- MongoDB with Mongoose ODM
- PostgreSQL with Sequelize ORM
- MySQL with Sequelize ORM
- SQLite for lightweight development
- No Database option for API-only projects
- TypeScript support for Express projects
- Python Virtual Environment for Flask projects
- CORS configuration out of the box
- Nodemon for auto-restart during development
- Environment Variables with dotenv
- Interactive CLI with beautiful prompts
npx backend-studio my-awesome-backend
cd my-awesome-backend
npm install
That's it! Your backend is ready to rock! πΈ
npx backend-studio <project-name>
npm install -g backend-studio
backend-studio <project-name>
# Create Express.js backend
npx backend-studio my-express-api
# Create Flask backend
npx backend-studio my-flask-api
# Navigate and install dependencies
cd my-express-api
npm install
# Start development server
npm run dev
When you run the command, you'll be guided through an interactive setup:
