# Good Bye Web APIs

**[DEV](https://daily.dev/sources/devto)** · [@mvila](https://daily.dev/mvila) · 8 min read · 87 upvotes · 11 comments

## Summary

Layr is a set of libraries that let you build a full-stack application with a single codebase. The frontend and the backend are physically separated (they run in different environments) but logically reunited. The backend is composed of one or more classes whose some of their attributes and methods are explicitly exposed to the frontend.
