## Secondary Features

- Inline image editing

- Data history

- Data localization

- Event driven function triggers

- Prebuilt Open-Source Assets & Plugins

- Customizable back-office UI

- API-first approach

Spica provides enterprise-grade backend features and customizable back-office UI for non-technical people. 

## Quick Start

Important: To run serve command, you must have [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) and [NodeJs](https://nodejs.org/en/) installed on your development environment.

```bash

# Install the CLI

npm install -g @spica/cli

# Start a fresh server

spica project start my-first-server

```

## How It Works

We are trying to reduce development time for fast-paced projects and startups. Also we want to give a platform where the backend developers enjoy while developing robust projects. You can use Spica as a backend engine as well as a headless CMS.

To use Spica as a **backend engine**:

1. Prepare your data models in **Bucket Module**, REST API and GraphQL API will be generated automatically

2. Add rules to each bucket as an entry level security layer

3. Create custom policy for your project user roles

4. Apply your logic with **cloud functions**

5. Add **custom dashboards** for the business managers

To use Spica as a **Headless CMS**:

1. Prepare your data models in **Bucket Module**, REST API and GraphQL API will be generated automatically

2. Place your inputs and customize your bucket views with a few clicks

3. Create **identities** for your content editors

4. Add policies to your **identities** so your content editors can't reach to any technical part.

5. Add automations with **cloud functions**

6. Add **Webhooks** if you want to trigger any other 3rd party integration such as Slack, Zapier

## RoadMap

We are currently in **public beta**. This means, you can use every feature and 99% of features are stable. We used Spica for a few enterprise-grade projects which are serving millions of requests in a day. 

We can tell that the current roadmap:

1. Automate some settings with AI and reduce the complexity of the tool

2. Better monitoring tools

3. Adding new open-source assets such as Google Auth, Facebook Auth...

4. Adding new ready-to-use full-project starter kits such as Marketplace backend, social network backend .etc

5. New feature requests by our community are welcomed
