CRUD stands for Create, Read, Update, Delete. These are the basic operations required to manage data in a database. Each operation corresponds to a specific HTTP method:
Create: Adds new data (HTTP POST)
Read: Retrieves data (HTTP GET)
Update: Modifies existing data (HTTP PATCH)
Delete: Removes data (HTTP DELETE)
By generating CRUD endpoints, you automate the process of creating these operations for your database tables, simplifying backend configuration and enabling seamless data management.

With Twidget, once you have a table created, you can easily generate CRUD endpoints to manage the data within that table. The platform will automatically generate the relevant inputs, commands, steps, database queries, and outputs.
