Ask HN: Is there codegen framework for business logic?

I feel the same problem! I've been writing web apps in various technologies (from backbone to react, php to Node) and always felt I had to reimplement the same common features (while using a lot of code + tests, ...).

Thinking similarly as you (terraform for code), together with my brother I started working on https://wasp-lang.dev/ - it is a DSL for building full-stack web apps. We are still very early but have some initial functionality.

Would love to hear if that resonates with what you had in mind.

We also did a quite extensive research of other solutions so happy to share what we discovered here as well.

E.g. From the purely code-generators:

https://divjoy.com/ - generates react code

https://bullettrain.co/ - Ruby on Rails starter

This looks great, even though it is new it looks polished. I am not a web developer but would like to be able to create web interfaces for APIs and other small projects I've built. This seems like it would be a great tool for things like that. Keep up the good work!

Thank you very much! That definitely sounds like the good use case. If you'd like to support us feel free to star our repo at https://github.com/wasp-lang/wasp, that is currently the best way for us to show that other people are excited about Wasp too :).
