# Temba
[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/temba) [](#contributors-) [](https://temba.bouwe.io)
**Create a simple REST API with zero coding in less than 30 seconds (seriously).**
For developers that need a **quick NodeJS backend** for small projects.
**No need for any coding**, unless you want to opt-out of the defaults, or want to do more customization.
An **OpenAPI specification** is generated and enabled by default, providing **interactive documentation** and allowing you to generate client code from it.
Data is kept **in memory**, but you can also store it in a **JSON file** or **MongoDB database**.
## Getting Started
Create your own Temba server instantly:
```
npx temba-cli create my-rest-api
```
This command will:
* Create a new folder called `my-rest-api`
* Install Temba as a dependency
* Generate a `server.js` file
* Automatically start your brand-new Temba API
You’ll see:
```
✅ Server listening on port 8362
```
Now you can send any HTTP request to any resource on localhost:8362 — and it just works.
Or head over to the interactive OpenAPI specification of your API in your browser at `/openapi`.
