No what i mean is to do in this way to build a prototype, to see if it works properly, because some people are saying that if we do it online will be very slow. SO we can build a prototype, making the less effort possible (this is why i said to use those APIs to access the DB) and if it works and everyone agrees on how it is then we can work and make real APIs, written in the language that we prefer, around it.
I think this software will be the center of everything, so we have to make it very good, fast, easy and full of features. So what do you think on doing it in this way?
