Build with AI Agent

Use the Back4app AI Agent to generate a real anime streaming service app from this template, including frontend, backend, authentication, and anime management flows.

Back4app AI Agent

Ready to build

Create an anime streaming service backend on Back4app with this exact schema and behavior.

Schema:
1. User (use Back4app built-in): username, email, password; objectId, createdAt, updatedAt (system).
2. Anime: title (String, required), description (String), genres (Array of Strings), episodes (Array of Pointers to Episode); objectId, createdAt, updatedAt (system).
3. Episode: title (String, required), synopsis (String), duration (Number, required); objectId, createdAt, updatedAt (system).
4. Engagement: user (Pointer to User, required), anime (Pointer to Anime, required), comment (String, required), rating (Number); objectId, createdAt, updatedAt (system).

Security:
- Only the user can update/delete their profile. Only the owner can create/delete their anime and episodes. Use Cloud Code for validation.

Auth:
- Sign-up, login, logout.

Behavior:
- List users, browse anime, leave comments, and rate episodes.

Deliver:
- Back4app app with schema, ACLs, CLPs; frontend for user profiles, anime management, and engagement features.
