Low code API based SaaS using CakePHP
summary
A minimal API SaaS MVP is built and running: a CakePHP app exposing countries and nested cities with pagination, both JSON and XML, using Friends of Cake CRUD for rapid controllers, CakeDC Users with an API token generated on signup for auth, and a CrowView admin that creates dynamic CRUD pages without custom templates. Routes use an API prefix, token-by-query-string auth works in the demo, and Swagger PHP, rate‑limit and Stripe suggestions are listed for production.
