Welcome to Manifest Documentation 👋

Manifest is the simplest Micro-backend you will find: It provides a complete backend to your client app without the hassle that comes with it.

It actually fits into a single YAML file that generates a complete backend. Here is an example of a complete Manifest app:

name: Healthcare application

entities:
  Doctor 👩🏾‍⚕️:
    properties:
      - fullName
      - avatar
      - { name: price, type: money, options: { currency: EUR } }
    belongsTo:
      - City

  Patient 🤒:
    properties:
      - fullName
      - { name: birthdate, type: date }
    belongsTo:
      - Doctor

  City 🌍:
    properties:
      - name
