Next.js is evolving fast to become an increasingly appealing choice for building full-stack web apps. However, coding up the backend part of an app, especially implementing CRUD services efficiently and securely, is still tricky (and boring 😒 too).
ZenStack is a toolkit that simplifies the construction of CRUD services with a schema-first approach. It offers a modeling language for defining data models, relations, and access policies and then generates RESTful CRUD services (with authorization) and React hooks for you. It also allows you to share types between client and server-side coding and achieve end-to-end type safety without pain.
Our goal is to let you save time writing boilerplate code and focus on building what matters - the user experience.

ZenStack incrementally extends Prisma's power with the following four layers:
1. ZModel - an extended Prisma schema language
ZenStack introduces a data modeling language called "ZModel" - a superset of Prisma schema language. It extended Prisma schema with custom attributes and functions and, based on that, implemented a flexible access control layer around Prisma.
// base.zmodel
abstract model Base {
id String @id
author User @relation(fields: [authorId], references: [id
