Introduction
Welcome to the platform documentation. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know to get started, from initial setup to advanced configuration.
Overview
The platform provides a unified API layer for managing data, authentication, and real-time events across your applications. Built with performance and developer experience in mind, it handles the infrastructure complexity so you can focus on building features your users care about.
Quick Start
Get up and running in under five minutes. Install the SDK, configure your API keys, and make your first request.
- Install the SDK via npm or yarn
- Configure your API credentials
- Initialize the client in your application
- Make your first query to verify the connection
Architecture
The platform is built on a three-layer architecture: the API gateway handles routing and authentication, the application layer processes business logic, and the data layer manages persistence and caching.
Next Steps
Now that you understand the basics, explore the API reference for detailed endpoint documentation, or follow the guides for common integration patterns.
import { createClient } from '@platform/sdk'
const client = createClient({
url: process.env.PLATFORM_URL,
key: process.env.PLATFORM_KEY,
})
// Fetch all published posts
const { data, error } = await client
.from('posts')
.select('*')
.eq('status', 'published')Tip: Use environment variables for all configuration values. Never hardcode API keys in your source code.
