Demo Applications & Examples

The project includes demo applications for each supported frontend and backend stack. These serve as reference implementations for building your own applications on the App Platform. Currently the demo applications can only be found inside the storyboard repository on azure devops.

Backend Demos

Express (TypeScript)

The Express demo implements a simple weather API that fetches data through the platform gateway on behalf of the authenticated user. It also provides CRUD endpoints for per-user JSON storage, demonstrating how to scope data to individual users.

Python

A Python backend demo is also available, following the same patterns as the Express version.

Frontend Demos

React (TypeScript)

The React demo application contains two main examples:

  • Weather API Demo — Shows how to call APIs using different strategies: directly through the platform gateway, via the backend, and with various reload/polling patterns.
  • JSON Storage Demo — Demonstrates server-persisted state with optimistic updates, automatic conflict resolution, and a save queue that serializes rapid successive writes.
