Got a question about Starhive's no-code backend offering?

Is Starhive only a no-code backend?

Not at all. Starhive is a platform for IT teams and other teams to store business data and then build apps/tools/solutions for their company on top of their data. We provide both the data platform and an interface builder.

But we also know that our interfaces won’t suit everyone. Some people will want more control over how it looks, or to build something more customised to their needs. That’s why we opened Starhive up to connect to any frontend you like. 

Can Starhive be used for mobile apps?

You can use Starhive as your backend for your mobile application via our API. Starhive itself doesn’t allow users to create mobile applications.

There is a Starhive mobile app, but that's more for admins and people accessing the Starhive database.

If you’re looking for a single tool for no-code/low-code/visual development mobile applications, we recommend tools like Glide or Bubble. 

Does Starhive provide hosting?

We handle the hosting of anything you build in Starhive. That includes all your data. And if you use Starhive’s app builder we’ll also host that. If you’re creating your own user interface, you will need to host that yourself. 

What is a no-code backend?

No-code backends or Backend as a Service (BaaS) is the term given to software that handles the database, hosting, scaling, logic, and more for an application. 

Ordinarily people building their own backend would need to create and host their database, ensure they maintain it, and much more which can be time consuming and needs a different set of skills that those for designing web pages.
