Coast Demo Tutorial: Introduction

This interactive tutorial walks you through step-by-step how to build the following demo. This tutorial brings you on a comprehensive harbor tour ⚓️ of Coast's powerful features, building on the Quickstart guide.

Each lesson delves into the fundamental principles of Coast and leads you through the process of creating a demo for a hypothetical payment processor API, with URL: https://cocomo.api.com/{endpoint}. This demo will be entirely mocked, but made to feel live, thanks to Coast's Local Database.
