About Linx

Linx allows users to set up interactions with databases, files, web services, email and other APIs to efficiently perform repetitive tasks and automate backend workflows

Users create solutions in the Linx Designer, a drag-and-drop desktop IDE. Solutions are designed to include server-side business logic, such as data validation, workflow rules, calculations, and more, with unlimited flexibility.

Completed solutions (applications) are deployed to the Linx Server where automated events are executed based on your predetermined triggers.

Use cases

1. Host web services or APIs.
2. Integrate systems.
3. Automated processing.
4. Back-end for mobile apps.

Some common use cases of Linx are: Integration layer: Consume and host web services, process custom files locally and via FTP, multiple database drivers. Automation: Perform automatic file transfers and imports, directory monitoring, script executions, API updates, batch file processing etc. APIs: Build, extend and host REST & SOAP web services.

Application units

1. Linx Designer ( like Visual Studio, with drag and drop, without code.)
2. Plugins for common operations on databases, files, web services, APIs etc. (like nuget or npm packages. They provide pre-built functionality.)
3. Linx Server: Server application to host one or more solutions.(like a .Net Application Server with built-in monitoring, configuration)
