Description
A complete backend toolkit you run yourself: auto-generated REST API, auth with roles, file storage, realtime, a built-in API explorer, and scaffolds that write real editable code. Works on SQLite, Postgres or MySQL with no rewrite at deploy. Ship it to any $5 VPS you own, with nightly backups we restore to prove they work.

Could you build this?
No Developing an all-in-one backend platform supporting multi-database abstraction, auto-generated secure APIs, role-based access control, and realtime subscriptions requires deep systems and database engineering.
What it would actually take: The architecture requires an AST-based query compiler that safely generates parameterized queries across SQLite, PostgreSQL, and MySQL dialects while automatically applying table- and row-level authorization rules. It also needs transactional schema introspection, connection pooling, and a multi-engine realtime event notification system (e.g., SQLite WAL polling, Postgres LISTEN/NOTIFY, MySQL binlog parsing).
