Fyi, there is already a widely used tool along with a company called semgrep, which stems from semantic grep: https://semgrep.dev/ .

I have had the same idea about martial arts. Not sure it is possible. In dancing you have at least some symmetric patterns and rhythm, in martial arts you have even more stances, rotation around more axes and arrhythmic moves. good dancing

You can absolutely have versioned views that you expose. An URL like /api/v1/customers could be rewritten to /views/v1_customers. That way you can change your schema internally.

The GET-endpoints by postgREST are very flexible and support limiting, pagination, ordering, selection of fields etc., which typical hand-written APIs do not support.

> Anything else, you likely need a transformation layer and also take into account Auth, rate limiting etc You can do flexible auth in PostgREST, but also on an api-gateway. Are you right now doing rate limiting in the backend?
