Sails.js is an MVC web framework for Node.js, inspired by Ruby on Rails. It provides conventions and scaffolding for rapidly building REST APIs and web applications with a familiar structure of models, views, and controllers.
A standout feature is Blueprints, which auto-generate RESTful API endpoints for models with full CRUD operations. Combined with the Waterline ORM, which supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and other databases through a unified interface, applications can be prototyped with minimal code.
Built-in Socket.io integration enables real-time features, allowing Blueprint routes to work over both HTTP and WebSockets. Policies provide middleware-like access control for protecting routes and enforcing authentication.
