We build software for startups. That means we work with people who have great ideas, an understanding of commercial execution, and a passion for their product and customers. If this sounds like you, and you need help building your product to get it out to the world…
FRAPI, an Open Source API framework. It lets developers create a RESTful API for their web apps, mobile apps or legacy systems. It plugs straight into the database layer, and does not impact on the application layer. See how to build an API in 5 minutes on getFRAPI.com.
