Real apps you can open and copy
These examples live in the Protobase repository and docs, with their code. The ERP and the real estate app are also starting points in Protobase Cloud, and the property portal runs as a live demo.

Docs guide
Pip’s bike shop: a back office on a table you already have
- Two tables, customers and repairs. A booking site writes the repairs; the front desk and the workshop work in the admin.
- Filters for the questions the front desk asks most, a chart of bookings, and a record page laid out like the paper repair card.
- Buttons for the moves the shop makes all day, and a view for the mechanics without the money columns.
- One firm rule in the description: a bike leaves the shop paid.

Docs guide
Veldhuis Supply: one page that says what needs attention
- Sam runs sales and wants one page: four numbers, the lists behind them, one order to chase, and the leads, with a way to add one.
- It is a composed page: JSX that compiles to plain data, with no endpoints and no React to maintain.
- Every block reads the regular API with Sam’s token, so the access rules apply exactly as on the lists.

Docs guide
Northwind Labs: a billing page inside an app
- Ada handles billing, and gets one page for it: the plan, who is billed, how they pay and what they paid.
- It is a composed page too, with forms in a dialog, buttons that act on records, and one component written in React.

Preset
An ERP for an industrial supplier
- 19 resources across 6 schemas, including a legacy
hr."EMP_MASTER"table, and 8 roles, from sales and the warehouse to the auditor. - A sales overview page, an API function, a nightly job on Amsterdam time, organizations, cost fields only some roles may read, and a bottom bar for the warehouse on phones.
- Two organizations, Dutch, German and English companies and three years of history. The largest seed holds 10,000,000 stock moves.

Preset
Rental and property management
- Owners, properties, units, leases, tenants, rent, payments, arrears and maintenance, with Dutch data: 19 resources and 4 roles.
- A portfolio overview page. Tenants’ IBANs are revealed one at a time, with an audit record.
- Overlapping leases are refused by a database constraint. The largest seed holds 10,000 properties, 107,000 units and 3.57 million rent charges.

Live demo
A public property portal
- Homes for sale and for rent in the Netherlands and Spain. Visitors browse without an account; anyone can sign up.
- Members keep favorites, private notes and saved searches that email new homes at once or once a day.
- Photo carousels with resized images and placeholders, and a map with approximate positions. The largest seed holds 100,000 listings and 433,000 photos.
Start with the database you have
