Torra Community Edition — Unified DB Query & Powerful Hooks with FeathersJS

[HLingSoft]

Hello FeathersJS community,

First, thank you for providing such an elegant and flexible framework!
I’d like to share how we’re leveraging FeathersJS in our project, Torra Community Edition:

What Torra does with FeathersJS:

Unified database queries
We integrate all our database operations through FeathersJS services, so that the frontend can simply use a GraphQL-like syntax for data access. FeathersJS handles the underlying queries, unifying different database sources behind one flexible API.

Centralized API management
All data operations—reads, writes, updates—are routed through FeathersJS, replacing the need for direct Nitro (Nuxt) endpoints. This gives us a clean, maintainable and secure backend interface.

Advanced hooks for data logic
Inspired by the hook system in LeanCloud, we use FeathersJS hooks to process, validate and extend every data operation. This allows powerful middleware-like logic for authentication, auditing, transformation, and more—right in one place.

We found FeathersJS extremely helpful in making Torra’s data layer both powerful and developer-friendly.

Thank you again to the FeathersJS team and community for your incredible work. Any feedback or questions are warmly welcome!

Best regards,

Thank you for sharing! We're planning on starting up monthly community calls, would you be interested in making a 5 minute demo?

Hi David, Thanks for the invite! Because of the US–China time difference, would it be okay if I provide a pre-recorded 5-minute demo for the next community call? I can also include captions and a short doc with links. If timing works later, I’m happy to join a future call live for Q&A. Best, David ***@***.***> 在 2025年8月15日 周五 12:09 写道： Thank you for sharing!

A short video would be great. We're hoping to also set up calls eventually that work better with different timezones.
