How many projects are there to automatically API-ify a database with auth boilerplate today? At least a few well funded ones, one recently funded by YC even. They came up with it in 2015? 2016? and still have a thriving project going with it. Looks like less than 10 people have more than 10 commits in its history: https://github.com/PostgREST/postgrest/graphs/contributors https://github.com/PostgREST/postgrest/graphs/contributors

Having followed the PostgREST project for years, it’s been wild to see the recent explosion of similar sorts of projects (as you describe); I’d very much believed this was a “solved problem”.

  CouchDB is a database from 2005 that can _only_ be accessed via a REST api.

>How many projects are there to automatically API-ify a database with auth boilerplate today? That's a really vague statement but you described phpmyadmin, django, wordpress with a plugin, etc. Most successful CRM companies essentially have some framework doing this underneath as well.
