About Loopback

LoopBack was created in 2013 by StrongLoop, a company focused on developing tools for Node.js. It was designed to simplify the process of building APIs and connecting them to various backend data sources. In 2015, IBM acquired StrongLoop and continued to support and develop LoopBack as part of its API Connect platform.

LoopBack's strengths include its robust data modeling capabilities, extensive connectors for various databases, and strong API creation tools. Its weaknesses are a steeper learning curve and less active community support compared to some newer frameworks. Competitors include Express.js, NestJS, and Hapi.js.
