Strain is an experimental Rails engine that exposes JSON API endpoints for quickly defining and editing structured content. By providing a JSON Schema you get user-editable content types with shared server-side and client-side validation and, through the upcoming Strain-admin editor, autogenerated rich admin interfaces built with React.
Once your content models are stable, you can extend the underlying models with STI to add additional logic. In the future, Strain will be able to generate migrations to promote your content types to full-fledged ActiveRecord models.
Note: This gem is experimental, and will be changing rapidly.
