Backroad

https://www.npmjs.com/package/@backroad/backroad https://backroad.sudomakes.art https://backroad.sudomakes.art https://react.dev/ NX Workspace semantic-release: backroad

Backroad is a low-code tool that allows Node.JS developers to try out their own tooling/packages or build proof-of-concept apps as quickly as possible.

Backroad provides a simple streamlit-like API and ships with several commonly used components out of the box like form inputs, tables and LLMs. Powered by a top-to-bottom re-run based flow, it allows you to quickly put together applications with a very easy-to-understand interface.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:

  • You have installed a relatively recent version of Node.JS

Installing Backroad

To install Backroad, follow these steps:

npx degit sudomakes/trybackroad trybackroad
cd trybackroad
npm i
npm run dev

Backroad Example

Here's what a sample backroad script looks like

const [photo] = br.fileUpload({ label: 'Pick Image' });
if (photo) {
  br.write({ body: '# Greyscale image' });
  const image = await Jimp.read(photo.filepath);
  image.greyscale().getBase64(Jimp.AUTO, (err, res) => {
    br.image({ src: res, width: 600 });
  });
}

And this is the output you will get in the browser:

As you can probably notice, it takes a relatively small amount of code to get started building and prototyping your ideas with Backroad. To learn more about backroad components and concepts, refer the docs
