Analog + PostgreSQL

Key Features

• File-based routing system that automatically generates Angular routes from directory structure
• Server-side rendering and static site generation with Nitro deployment adapter
• API routes co-located with frontend code using Angular's dependency injection
• Vite-powered development server with hot module replacement for Angular components
• MDX and Markdown content support with frontmatter parsing for blog-style applications
• PostgreSQL JSON/JSONB columns for flexible schema design alongside relational data
• Full-text search capabilities using PostgreSQL's built-in search features
• ACID-compliant transactions ensuring data consistency across complex operations

Common Use Cases

• 1Content management systems with Angular admin interfaces and PostgreSQL content storage
• 2E-commerce applications requiring product catalogs, inventory tracking, and order management
• 3Developer documentation sites using MDX content with user authentication and progress tracking
• 4Enterprise dashboards displaying complex analytics from PostgreSQL data warehouses
• 5Multi-tenant SaaS applications leveraging PostgreSQL's row-level security features
• 6Blog platforms with Angular-based editors and PostgreSQL full-text search
• 7Real estate or job listing sites with geospatial queries using PostGIS extension
