If you want to build out a REST API against your Postgres database and don’t want to write it all by hand, we've got the solution for you. A Thin Backend Server compiles a fully featured API on top of your DB, where you can access underlying data with any language or framework - all with an intuitive, easy-to-use interface.
Thin Backends reduce the amount of code that you need to write, making it easier for you to build and maintain your application. The Thin Backend allows you to focus on creating the heart of your application, instead of focusing on integrating with a database or other third-party services.
The Thin backend is an application server for making real-time single-page apps including forms, web sockets, and a back-end server. It's blazing fast, easy to set up, and supports the most popular JavaScript frameworks in the world.
Delight your end-users with superior speed and the lowest latency. Optimistic Updates are available for all memory transactions: push, pull, and data transfer. Always the latest data is visible on the screen, with no waiting for the server to respond back and show you the changes.
Real-time app state synchronization is critical to your users. With Thin Backend Live Queries, your app state is synchronized in real-time across all users and across devices. It ensures that your apps are always up to date, and you'll never have to deal with bugs again!
When you design a new table, use the Schema designer to create it. Then, when you add or change a column in the Schema designer, the changes will only be applied to the in-memory schema. The actual Postgres database will only be touched when you run migrations. In that way, it's easy for you to create a prototype and test it right away without affecting production.
Thin is a TypeScript definition generation tool that generates your database schema directly from your TypeCode block. This catches most runtime errors ahead of time while providing really nice autocompletion.
Every Thin Backend project comes with a zero-setup, user management, and permissions system included. Most of the other applications don't have this stuff built in and you need to install all sorts of extra plugins or custom software to get anything like this working.
Thin Backend makes it easier to secure your data. It takes care of creating policies that control access to the data and simplify management. Based on naming conventions, Thin Backend will automatically generate the initial policies for you. After that, only a few more tweaks are needed to fine-tune these policies based on your needs.
The Thin Backend is designed to solve problems that tend to appear in long-running asynchronous (and syncing!) online applications. It's built on top of the production-proven IHP architecture & libraries and includes techniques like lightweight transactions, concurrency control, and lazy, non-blocking RPC.
