    LoopBack makes it easy to build modern applications that require complex integrations.

  • To save time and get to the fun part of building the dashboard with React-admin, we’ll be making use of Loopback to generate a Nodejs API over the database. If you are not familiar with Loopback, it is a highly extensible Node.js and TypeScript framework for building APIs and microservices.
