Supports a Core submodule that can be used in multiple codebases for the same project
Do you need multiple codebases for the same project? You can expand the REST API to use a Core submodule that is also used by your frontend and admin platforms (also available from Dotkernel). This way you ensure there are no incompatibilities between your platforms. Any change is easily pushed to all of them to sync the latest updates.
Modern Technologies
Has an active team of experienced developers working on keeping the codebase up-to-date
We at Dotkernel have been working on our REST API for the past decade to bring you a stable, fast, reliable solution for your needs. We have been using this REST API for our own projects and have ironed out all the kinks for you. Follow our quick tutorial and you are set. Visit our documentation pages for more details.
Modern Technologies
