This is bizarre. I spent a good 5+ min looking over the README and documentation site, and couldn’t find out what that project is other than “a backend that runs on Nodejs.” Yeah ok but what is it? Why am I interested? I’m not looking to be sold, just for it to tell me what it’s for. I have some assumptions based on how I got linked there, but this is surprising to me.

In a nutshell a place for your web page or mobile app to store and retrieve data. There is some auth, business logic / security stuff but not as much as you get in an MVC web app. Let’s you build apps where a lot of the work happens on the front end and the back end is basically a place to save to disk.
Parse was a startup but they shut down and open sourced their code.
