Build, Test, and Export REST APIs Visually – Meet Dyan (Open Source)

Ever wished you could build APIs without writing all the backend boilerplate?

Dyan is an open-source, self-hosted platform to visually create and test REST endpoints. You can write logic in JavaScript or Python, plug in your database, and soon even export the entire backend as a Rust microservice.

✅ Define endpoints visually
✅ Use JS/Python to write custom logic
✅ Test inputs/outputs in the browser
✅ Extend or export as code
✅ Self-hosted and open source

👨‍💻 Stack: React + Tailwind (Frontend), NestJS + Prisma (Backend)
