Why and How

Why I Built This Application

The AI Revolution Beyond Development

AI is not just for developers anymore. The landscape is rapidly evolving, and AI capabilities should be accessible in user applications across all domains. This application represents a step toward that future.

Current API Landscape: The Good, The Bad, and The Missing

REST APIs: The Foundation

  • What we have: Well-established protocol with widespread adoption
  • What we're missing: Rich descriptions and context about data relationships
  • The problem: While Swagger/OpenAPI provides some documentation, it often lacks meaningful descriptions that help AI understand the business logic

GraphQL: The Evolution

  • What we have: Powerful query language with a schema that defines relationships
  • What we're missing: Metadata about business context and user permissions
  • The problem: The schema tells us what data exists, but not why it exists or who should access it

The Remult + Single Source of Truth (SSoT) Approach

  • What we have: Entities with rich metadata, business logic, and permission systems
  • What we can generate: Everything from Remult to documentation to AI interfaces
  • The breakthrough: We can generate Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that respect user rights and understand business context

The Vision: AI-Enabled User Applications

This application demonstrates how we can bridge the gap between traditional APIs and AI-powered user experiences. By leveraging a single source of truth with rich metadata, we can:

  1. Generate intelligent interfaces that understand your data and business rules
  2. Respect user permissions automatically across all interactions
  3. Provide context-aware AI assistance that knows what users can and cannot do
  4. Maintain consistency between your business logic and AI interactions

Why This Matters

The future of software isn't just about building better APIs—it's about building applications that can think alongside users. When AI understands your business context, user permissions, and data relationships, it becomes a true partner rather than just a tool.

This is why I built this application: to show what's possible when we move beyond the limitations of traditional API documentation and embrace a world where AI truly understands your application's purpose and constraints.
