Hey PH community! I'm so happy to be here today representing our amazing and incredibly talented team to share with you our latest tool Back4app Agent. Back4app Agent is an AI-powered tool created to autonomously assist developers in building, deploying, and troubleshooting applications. Our goal when creating the Agent was to simplify the DevOps process, boost efficiency, and increase productivity. Think of the agent this way: It's your personal AI DevOps assistant that you can rely on 24/7. So does the agent do? ✅ Executes tasks: Input your requirements or issues and the Agent generates solutions, code snippets, and troubleshooting steps, and executes & and implements them in the cloud. ✅ Deploys applications: Ensure a transparent and traceable deployment process by creating a new web app from a GitHub repository, managing its settings, initiating new deployments, and accessing detailed logs. ✅ Creates and manages applications: Deploy cloud code, retrieve content, call REST/GraphQL, APIs, fetch schemas, create classes, insert data, and execute cloud code functions. ✅ Manages code repos: With our seamless integration with GitHub, you can fully manage your repositories directly from the Back4app Agent. With the Agent, you can access your repos, push new code, fetch existing code, monitor changes, manage branches, and clone repos. Thanks so much for taking the time to check out our launch. We'd love to hear your feedback, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments! Happy Friday! 🎉 Gus

Great product! This really revives the original mission of Parse which was to make app development easily accessible for the masses. Now with this tool a developer can kickstart their first app without writing a single line of code. This truly is revolutionary - amazing job!

Congrats with the launch! Sounds like a magic too for deployment 🚀 Do you have a plan to incorporate it to the primary product or remain it as a separate tool under back4app umbrella?

@xeniagoron great question Ksenia! The Agent is incorporated into our product. All you have to do is log into your account and you can start using it from the dashboard 👍🏻

@xeniagoron thank you for your feedback! The idea is to develop the product further and integrate with clouds like AWS. Do you think this feature would be useful to you?

@xeniagoron Thank you for your question and for your support. The Agent also is an interface for the other back4app products so you can use Containers and Backend with Natural Language. And our goal is to integrate it with other Cloud providers to give more flexibility to our users.

@alyssoncm I should say it's a great approach to extend the audience by empowering the core product! How do you validate your idea about the new feature? I'm interested in ways of collecting first feedback from early adopters. Or did you ask your product community and current users?

Great feature, quite disruptive in the no code backend field! And loving your short, to-the-point youtube tutorials. Keep it up guys.

@fredkzk thank you so much Fred! With the release of the Agent, we're going to a full demo and walkthrough on YT 👍🏻

@fredkzk happy to hear that. The Agent goal is to pursue this vision and keep helping developers to release more code faster. As soon as you have more feedback on the Agent would love to hear. Thank you

@alyssoncm One question though: the agent is great at understanding instructions. But as a no coder with little clue about how backends, containers, github work, can it answer questions about how to actually proceed, what the steps should be, prior to giving it instructions?

@fredkzk Thanks for your feedback, Fred. Do you think integrating this agent to AWS would be helpful in supporting other projects that are already up and running on major clouds?

@george_batschinski1 Yes, AWS, Google Cloud, as well as integration with cloud computing servers like RunPod, RunDiffusion, etc...

Back4app is a great and easy-to-use platform. It provides everything required for building modern web/mobile backends. Best of all, it offers a free tier, and their custom support is exceptional.

As a company owner, I know firsthand how challenging it can be to maintain a stable development environment. However, Back4App has been a game-changer in streamlining this process with their cutting-edge technology. Previously, we used Parse Server in our infrastructure, hosted on Heroku, created S3 Buckets in AWS, rented DBs from MongoAtlas, bought redis add-ons from Heroku, and the list went on and on. Building and maintaining these components to run Parse Server smoothly was a time-consuming job. But thanks to Back4App, it has become incredibly easy! We are now saving both time and money, and onboarding new developers has become much easier with Back4App's constant generation of new documentation, videos, and support through their Slack channel, all provided by their fantastic support team. To sum it up, working with Back4App has been an absolute pleasure thus far, and we look forward to seeing it continue to thrive in the future.
