API Services Layer

FastAPI-powered backend services

AI Generative Core

AI models for code and content generation

Database Systems

MongoDB for flexible data storage

Storage Services

Asset management and file storage

DevOps Infrastructure

CI/CD pipelines and containerization

​
Technical Stack

Next.js

React framework for server-rendered applications

Tailwind CSS

Utility-first CSS framework

ShadCN

Accessible component library

Lucide

High-quality icon set

Liveblocks

Real-time collaboration features

​
System Flows

​
User Interface Generation Flow

1

User Input

User provides a description of the desired UI component or page
2

AI Processing

The description is processed by the AI generative core
3

Code Generation

AI generates React/Next.js component code with Tailwind styling
4

Preview Rendering

Generated code is rendered in real-time for user preview
5

Customization

User can modify generated components through the visual editor
6

Integration

Component is integrated into the user’s project codebase

​
API Creation Flow

1

API Definition

User defines API requirements through the visual interface
2

Schema Generation

The system generates OpenAPI schema based on requirements
3

Logic Implementation

Backend logic is created through visual flow builder
4

Database Connection

API endpoints are connected to database collections
5

Testing

Endpoints are tested through the built-in testing interface
6

Deployment

API is deployed as serverless functions or container services

​
Scalability Design

The platform is designed for horizontal scalability:
  • Stateless services: Backend components are stateless for easy scaling
  • Containerization: All services are containerized for consistent deployment
  • Microservices: Independent scaling of individual services based on load
  • Database sharding: Data distribution for high-volume applications
  • Edge computing: Global CDN for frontend assets and API caching
  • Auto-scaling: Automatic resource adjustment based on demand
