A headless admin platform for application data
Keep your customer interface in your chosen stack and give operators a separate, generated place to manage structured records through an API-backed data model.
The problem this approach addresses
Many products have two different interfaces: one for customers and another for staff. The latter still needs predictable schemas, safe edits, and access rules, but it does not need to share the customer-facing design system or ship as a second bespoke frontend.
How Dashier works
- 1Model each operational collection as a Dashier data source.
- 2Use generated forms and tables for staff record work.
- 3Connect the product backend to each REST endpoint.
- 4Keep private keys on a server and expose only intended public routes.
Why consider Dashier?
Consider Dashier when the application needs an API-first administrative data layer and generated CRUD tooling, rather than a separate content publishing workflow.
Know the boundaries
Dashier currently documents REST rather than GraphQL and does not provide a generated SDK. The database provider and deployment configuration remain important to review for your environment.
Make the administrative layer part of the data design
Start with the model, review the permission boundary, and integrate the API where it belongs in your application.
