We just published something that will make application development bootstrapping for Oracle Database faster than ever before. Internally, we called the project “app scaffolding.” The idea was to provide a small program that would help beginners get started fast by giving them a way to generate the code they need to connect to an Oracle Database. Today, we published the first incarnation of that for JavaScript. It’s called Create Database App and it’s hosted on npmjs.com: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@oracle/create-database-app
The JavaScript/Node.js package is the first but more are soon to come for Python, Java, and others. The package was proudly built in Mexico by some of our amazing developers there. They got this from “prototype” to “live” in an amazingly short amount of time which makes me really proud of them. Well done, guys!
A couple of notes:
- The NPM package is on: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@oracle/create-database-app
- The program is fully open-source and hosted on GitHub: https://github.com/oracle/create-database-app
- Invoke it via
npm create @oracle/database-app
and follow the prompts! - Make sure to post your issues, enhancements, and thoughts on the GitHub repo: https://github.com/oracle/create-database-app/issues
