Dap

Dap is a web-based Platform as a Service (PaaS) that allows users to create and manage their own demo APIs effortlessly. It is designed to facilitate rapid application development by providing demo APIs that help visualize app functionality before building the complete backend logic.

Live Service

Features

• User Authentication: Secure sign-up and login through Google OAuth.
• Project Management: Create and manage multiple projects, each with its own API routes.
• API Route Creation: Add customizable API routes with defined paths, methods, and responses.
• Demo Environment: Quickly scaffold APIs for mobile app or website development.
• Cloud Stoarage: Store user and project data online, privately and securely.

Technologies Used

• Go: The primary programming language for the backend.
• Fiber: A fast and lightweight web framework for building APIs in Go.
• MongoDB: A NoSQL database for data storage.
• JWT: JSON Web Tokens for user authentication.
