One-Click Frontend Generation Tool for Backend Developers

This guide presents a free, online tool that enables backend developers to automatically generate frontend management pages without writing any front‑end code. The tool works in a non‑intrusive, front‑back separated manner, can be used online or deployed locally, and supports rapid creation of CRUD interfaces.

Start

Backend developers often need a system to configure data or perform CRUD operations but may lack front‑end skills. This tool solves that problem by generating the required UI in minutes.

Method 1: Generate from Database Structure

Export your database schema (SQL file), upload it to the tool, set the API base URL and path, and the system will generate a complete management UI. You only need to configure the login API parameters.

After logging in with an email verification code, select My Projects → AI Smart Create Project → Import Database Structure and upload the exported SQL file (supports multiple CREATE statements).

Configure the API base address, e.g., http://localhost:8080/test . Note that accessing a local server from the internet may cause CORS issues; adjust the server settings accordingly.

Select or automatically create a page template. The tool currently provides a ready‑made CRUD template sufficient for most cases. The template calls the appropriate CRUD endpoints and handles data processing automatically.

Define the endpoint paths and variable placeholders, for example:

Search endpoint: /${variable}/search

Save or update endpoint: /${variable}/saveOrUpdate

The placeholder ${fileName} represents the page name and is used to generate distinct pages.

Parameter variables allow you to map request parameters and response structures to match different backend APIs (e.g., pagination fields, success indicators).

After configuring the page information—ensuring the file name column matches ${fileName} —click Generate . The system builds the pages instantly.

Preview the generated UI; it is ready for use or can be downloaded for local deployment.

If authentication is required, configure the login page similarly and set the post‑login redirect.

Method 2: Generate from .sql, .java, or .txt Description Files

When you prefer fine‑grained control, create a project, copy a default page template, and open the design workspace.

Add a new page, specify the page name (which also becomes the file name, e.g., {fileName} ), then select a Java entity class, a single‑table CREATE statement, or a textual description file. Upload the selected file and confirm.

@TableName(value = "component")
@Data
public class ComponentPO {
    @TableId
    private Integer componentId;
    // Project ID
    private Integer projectId;
    // Component description
    private String componentDes;
    // Component name
    private String componentName;
    // Creation time
    private Date createAt;
    @TableLogic
    private Integer isDeleted;
}

The generated page can also include a login interface if needed.

Summary

With this tool, a simple system can be generated in three to five minutes; more complex requirements may need additional React knowledge. The visual editor empowers backend developers to obtain a fully functional management backend without manually modifying the database.
