Building something that needs a feature we don’t have yet? Let us know!
StaticBackend is actively developed and we prioritize features our users need. If you’re missing a critical component for your use case, we want to hear about it.
How to request features
GitHub Discussions - Share your use case and feature needs: → Join the discussion
Direct contact - Need something urgently? → Contact us and tell us what you’re building
What we’d love to know
When requesting a feature, it helps to share:
- What you’re building - Understanding your use case helps us design better features
- What’s missing - The specific functionality you need
- How you’d use it - Example code or workflow helps us nail the API design
- When you need it - Timeline helps us prioritize
We’re building in public
StaticBackend is open source, which means:
- ✅ You can see our roadmap and planned features
- ✅ You can contribute features yourself
- ✅ You can vote on what we build next
- ✅ You have transparency into development
Common requests we’re considering
Based on user feedback, here are features we’re exploring:
- Payment processing - Stripe/PayPal integration
- Search - Full-text search across your data

We’re here to help you ship faster. If something’s blocking you, let’s talk.
