I recently purchased NoCodeBackend from AppSumo, and I have to say, this product exceeded my expectations! Within 5 minutes, I was able to define and publish a fully functional CRM database and its corresponding API + documentation (swagger) — without any fuss or unnecessary complexity. For those looking to build a lightweight CRM, this tool offers just the right balance between simplicity and power. Incredible.

Here's what stood out to me:

- Incredibly fast setup, really : using just a simple prompt, I created multiple tables for Customers, Leads, Sales, and Tasks, complete with dropdown fields and relationships between them (relationship will be managed by my app logic). The AI-driven backend and API generation are seamless, and it was ready in no time, or let's say : 1 minute !

- Easy API documentation: the tool generates clean, easy-to-follow API documentation instantly. This will save me so much time, and I could jump straight into testing the API for my CRM (using ActivePieces, tested OK in no time !)

- Great support: I had a small issue setting up my account, but support was quick to help (thanks Simar !). Within minutes, my problem was resolved, and I was ready to go.

- Time saver: If you need to set up backend infrastructure fast, NoCodeBackend is definitively the way to go. It takes care of the heavy lifting, allowing you to focus on building your product, not configuring complex systems. No brainer, you see what I mean.

Whether you're working on a CRM, like I did, or any other app, this tool will get you up and running in no time. I highly recommend NoCodeBackend to anyone, definitely worth the 5 tacos! 🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮

NoCodeBackend team : congrats ! Can't wait for date and/or timestamps fields to be supported!

For those interested in the technical setup, below is the exact prompt I used to generate the database and API, as well as the Swagger documentation for the API. This showcases how simple and efficient it was to create a CRM backend in just a few clicks.
