01. The Challenge
Bootstrapping a new backend service means rewriting the same models, CRUD endpoints, auth wiring, and Docker config over and over, in whichever framework a team happens to use.
02. The Solution
Built a platform that turns a plain-English description, or a hand-edited DSL spec, into a real, runnable backend project across three frameworks — verified by CI that builds the generated code with each framework's own toolchain.
Overview
InfraNest collapses backend bootstrapping into one step: describe the system once, in English or in a small declarative DSL, and get a real, runnable project back for the framework you actually need — Django + DRF, Go Fiber + GORM, or Ruby on Rails.
Pipeline
A prompt goes through an agentic parser to become a DSL spec; the spec is validated, then handed to one of three generator classes, which render Jinja2 templates (Django) or structured source (Go/Rails) into a project directory, zipped and returned to the client.
Trust, Not Just Output
Generating files is easy; generating files that actually build is the hard part. CI doesn't just check that the generator ran — it builds every generated project with that ecosystem's real toolchain (`manage.py check`, `go build && go vet`, `ruby -c`) on every push, backed by 74 backend tests at 94% coverage and 18 frontend tests.
Degrading Gracefully
When no OpenAI or Anthropic key is configured, prompt parsing falls back to a deterministic keyword-based parser instead of failing closed, so the platform works end-to-end with zero external dependencies.
