What is KoBa?

KoBa is the Koodimus Backend Framework: a modular Node.js and TypeScript foundation for building business applications. It has core modules, security, product features, and provider integrations in an Express-based backend.

What can I build with it?

KoBa is suited to products that need users, organizations, permissions, and reusable business features: multi-tenant SaaS, customer and partner portals, company intranets, and internal tools. The backend template demonstrates a multi-tenant company intranet.

Can I use my own frontend?

Yes. KoBa exposes REST APIs, so your customer-facing application can use the frontend stack that fits your product. The companion KoBa Admin UI provides a React, TypeScript, and Mantine interface for administration.

Is KoBa a hosted backend service?

KoBa is an application framework. The reference application runs as a Node.js service with MongoDB. Talk to Koodimus about a deployment approach that fits your infrastructure and application requirements.

How do I get access or discuss licensing?

Contact Koodimus for a walkthrough, repository and package access, and licensing details for your project. KoBa packages are distributed through the private Koodimus registry.
