Backend

Built-in backend

When a generated app needs sign-in or stored data, Shipyard can provision a backend for that project.

Last updated August 12, 2026

When it shows up

If you ask for accounts, saved records, dashboards with real data, or member-only pages, Agent plans a backend: entities, access rules, and auth. Marketing-only sites often do not need one.

What it includes

Project-scoped users and sign-in and collections for the records the app needs. You stay in Shipyard — you do not have to stand up a separate database to try the first version.
