Project Summary

BackDev is a prototype Integrated Development Environment based on flow-based programing paradigm that allows software engineers to develop backend applications using graphical user interface rather than conventional programming. Backend development can be complex and repetitive, BackDev aims to reduce these complexities and repetitions by providing an easy-to-use interface where the user can simply drag and drop elements to generate code for their backend.

Project Objectives

The objective of this project is to design and develop a Software Solution that will provide Software Engineers an easy approach of backend development of web applications. This would be done by using flow based programming paradigm.

Project Implementation Method

This project is mainly divided into two modules, The Diagram Building module and the Code generation Module,

Diagram Building module

As this project is based on flow based programming paradigm so it requires a lot of user input in the form of models/diagrams etc, for this purpose javascript diagram building libraries Jointjs and Rappid will be used. The object representation of diagrams will also be generated for further processing.

Code generation Module

In the this module Nodejs code will be generated from object representation of diagrams. This module will be developed using Nodejs and Java

Benefits of the Project

The final product of this project will reduce the complexity of backend development. The developer will now design the program logic instead of hardcoding. It will save time for the developer and will reduce the complexity. The code generated by the system will be correct and syntax error free. In the event of a failure, the data on server must stay secured. The interface of the application should be attractive, user friendly and it should be easy to use. Product follows the conventions of backend development that normal developers are familiar with. So, it is easy for a backend developer to adapt to this tool and start developing backend application in a convenient way.

Backend development is complex and repetitive. There are many existing applications to simplify and generate code but none specifically to backend development. Our project helps reduce these complexities and repetitions by providing the developer with an easy-to-use interface that provides most functionalities while providing for the addition of extra functionalities.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

The final deliverables are a software package its user manual and a project report. The software is a desktop application where core program logic modules (developed in Nodejs and Java) will run on desktop environment while the user interface part of the application (developed using Web Technologies) will run on browser environment
