Instant APIs without code

DreamFactory™ is an open source REST API backend for mobile, web, and IoT applications. It is built on top of the Laravel framework, and includes an AngularJS-driven web administration client. So what can you do with the DreamFactory Platform?
- Generate powerful, reusable, documented APIs for SQL, NoSQL, files, email, push notifications and more in seconds.
- Use server-side scripts to easily customize API behavior at any endpoint, for both API requests and API responses.
- Secure every API endpoint with user management, SSO authentication, role-based access control, OAuth and Active Directory integration.
- Get installed in under 5 minutes with our Jeanie Installers (3.0 beta) for Ubuntu and Debian. This installs all necessary dependencies and allows more customization than Bitnami.
- Bitnami provides a point and click install process. Just download, click next-next-next and you are done!
- Docker provides a dockerhub image or you can build your own.
- Raspberry Pi allows you to configure DreamFactory as an open source IoT gateway.

Follow along with our Get Started Guide to configure your environment in minutes. Documentation for the platform can be found on the DreamFactory wiki. Our community forum can be found here.
