8:571. LaunchpadRun API Maker on Your Computer with Launchpad, in One Click
API Maker Launchpad is a desktop app that runs API Maker on your computer. Pick a folder: it installs API Maker v4, its MongoDB and Redis, and your databases. One click starts everything, a watchdog stands by, and closing the app stops it all, with nothing left running.
7:102. LaunchpadDatabases on Your Computer: 8 Engines, Any Version, One Click
Databases on your computer with API Maker Launchpad: eight engines in a few clicks, any version Docker Hub has, their instance in API Maker in one click, another version without losing the data, and one file to export and import everything a server holds.
6:063. LaunchpadMany Projects on One Computer: Tabs, Settings and Your Editor in Sync
Several API Maker projects on one computer, each in its tab and on its own ports. Every setting of a project on one page, a project deleted with everything it made, and your editor kept in sync with API Maker, both ways, with the local client.
6:144. Cloud modeLaunchpad: Deploy API Maker to Your Own Servers over SSH
The Cloud mode of API Maker Launchpad installs API Maker on servers you rent anywhere, from one server to a load balanced cluster, and keeps them running. Everything happens over SSH from your computer: no agent, a layout to start from, every change reviewed server by server, and a live deployment in stages.
6:565. ClustersDesign Clusters on a Canvas: Replica Sets, Galera, Gateways and HTTPS
Design a cluster on a canvas: API Maker on several servers behind a gateway, databases clustered over the servers you pick, a MongoDB replica set, MariaDB as a Galera cluster, Caddy, Ferron or Pingap as reverse proxies with their own domains and Let's Encrypt certificates, and every rule checked before anything is deployed.
7:156. Day twoLaunchpad Day Two: Upgrades, Health, Logs and Moving Data Between Servers
Day two with Launchpad: upgrades that say what they will do, the health of every server, a terminal, files and logs without SSH by hand, data moved between servers while it runs with every byte checked, data from your laptop to production in one file, and your Cloud settings sealed in one file.
7:247. Native APIsNode.js, Python, Go and Java for Native APIs, Installed for You
Code you mark Run on native process runs on the machine of API Maker, with the language API Maker finds on its PATH. API Maker Launchpad finds what your Mac and your servers have, and installs Node.js, Bun, Python, PHP, Go, Rust, .NET, Java or Kotlin from their publishers, every download checked against its checksum.
6:288. Upgrade from v3Move an API Maker 3 Server to v4 in Place, with API Maker Launchpad
A server of API Maker 3 moved to version 4 where it is, with API Maker Launchpad: a check that changes nothing, servers it can not move refused with the reason, a review of every change to the env file and the Caddyfile, the migration run on the server itself, and everything put back, data included, when anything fails.
