Show HN: DBLayer – Instantly turn your database into a API

1 scor32k 0 6/4/2025, 11:55:30 AM dblayer.dev ↗

Hey HN! I built DBLayer to help devs instantly convert their databases into APIs. It’s meant for indie hackers, early-stage teams, and data folks who want fast access without spinning up a backend.

You can:

- Write queries and expose it as endpoints - Add auth and monitor usage - Customize endpoints via UI - Skip boilerplate and get started in minutes

Would love your feedback and any bugs/edge cases you find!
