Directus starter

Directus puts an admin UI and a REST and GraphQL API on top of your own SQL database. A thin wrapper around the upstream npm package rather than a fork, so upgrading is a version bump. Needs a managed Postgres and a handful of secrets, which the README lists.

The source

This template is an ordinary public repository. Read it, fork it, or open a pull request against it. Deploying pulls its default branch and builds it the same way velixir builds your own code.

velixirnet/template-directus

Once it is live

The template is just a starting point. Clone it, edit it, then ship over the top with the CLI:

velixir deploy

Or wire the GitHub Action into your own repo and every push to your deploy branch ships a release. Both run the same pipeline this template just went through.
