Q: Can you help me understand the difference between this and fireapis?
Which I also purchased here
I do not have enough understanding to see the difference yet but I get that both tools are powerful in using and developing apis which I would like to be doing more of.
I also have 1 code for Meta API
Thanks

May 14, 2024A: Hi,
Interesting comparison! Both products look quite similar - in both, you can define what you want to store (types, attributes), and in both, you get API with documentation.
Fireapis seems more intended for developers, and Flotiq for developers and content editors. Why? For example, in Fireapis, you have a data entry view described as 'Testing API' in the endpoint management view and not as separate forms. A regular content editor doesn't need to know what an API is. In Flotiq, the data entry and editing view are more wordpress-like.
We also don't have a media library at fireapis for media management by non-technical users.
I think that both products are valuable depending on the use case. If you only care about building and testing APIs and storing data for your application, Fireapis seems to be more suitable.
If you also want to have forms designed for non-technical users, support for the website development process (Gatsby / NextJS starters etc.) - Flotiq seems to be more suitable.
