Hey everyone, We're building Keel, a schema driven backend engine - Define your data model, api actions and permissions in type-safe schemas and get a production-ready backend. Today we're opening up public access and launching a new way to get started with an AI-powered generator to go from prompt to backend in 2 mins along with a browser based development environment to easily explore Keel. All the API plumbing, auth (OIDC/SSO) and core CRUD is handled automatically and instantly transformed into internal tooling UI for your whole org You can then further extend everything by connecting your project to git and adding typescript (the core runtime is Go) functions, async event handlers and jobs.
