  Build REST APIs/Integrations in minutes instead of hours - NF Compose is a (data) integration platform that allows developers to define REST APIs in seconds instead of hours. Generated REST APIs are backed by postgres and support automatic consumer webhook notifications on data changes out of the box.

that allows for a quick way to generate user specified REST API definitions via a REST API. This has become NF Compose (https://github.com/neuroforgede/nfcompose).

I distinctively remember defining a REST API for a customer project 10 minutes before the first meeting and finalizing the final contract during the meeting together with the customer. The same job would have taken hours, if not 1-2 days, if we had built it the traditional way.

After using NF Compose for mulitple years internally and in customer projects, we recently decided to release the whole project under MPL-2.0 on GitHub and to iterate on it in public.

We have a companion repo over at https://github.com/neuroforgede/nfcompose-examples where we already have a small sample project that shows how to setup a REST API in 5-10 minutes (or if you know the concepts - seconds) in a reproducible manner. We will be updating that repository with more content over the next weeks.

Some notable features include:

- Ability to define DataSeries (REST APIs) via a browsable REST API
