    Frequently asked questions

    What is the best Draftbit alternative?

    Appifex, if you would rather describe the app than assemble it. Both produce real React Native, but Draftbit is a visual canvas for the front end only — you bring your own backend, database and auth. Appifex generates the mobile app, a FastAPI backend, a PostgreSQL database and authentication as one working system.

    Does Draftbit include a backend?

    No. Draftbit builds the React Native front end and expects you to supply an API, whether that is Supabase, Firebase or something you host. Every Appifex project comes with a dedicated FastAPI backend and its own PostgreSQL database, wired to the app and deployed.
