  • automatic-api

    A list of software that turns your database into a REST/GraphQL API

    Did you consider using an automatic API? This is an API that requires no or little coding, see: https://github.com/dbohdan/automatic-api

  • postgrest

    REST API for any Postgres database

    Ruby/Rails if all you are doing is CRUD, still hard to beat. If you were using Postgres and literally want a wrapper around the DB, I'd suggest https://github.com/PostgREST/postgrest; I don't know if there is a MySQL equivalent.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
