Hi Hunters 👋 - I'm the founder and CEO of Paragon (https://useparagon.com/) 3 years ago we launched Paragon as the most developer-friendly integration platform for building user-facing, native integrations that live seamlessly within your application. Think of Plaid for SaaS integrations. You can check out that launch here: https://www.producthunt.com/post... But there was one big piece missing: developers don't love using low-code visual workflow builders — it’s not as extensible as code, can’t be code reviewed, and isn’t version controlled in Git. It lived entirely outside of their SDLC. That changes today with Paragraph - our Typescript framework for building integrations. 🎉 Paragraph enables you to manage your Paragon project and integrations directly from your CLI, and is fully bi-directionally synced with the Paragon dashboard via your Git Repo. That means that everything you can do in the dashboard can be done in code, whether you’re adding a new integration, building a new workflow, or creating a custom connector. Better yet, integration logic can be authored without ever reading the 3rd party APIs' docs. Authentication, pagination, retry, and smart rate limiting are handled by Paragon, and our Integration Triggers and Actions are offered as Input Types within the Typescript framework. This brings together the best of both worlds - the power of Paragon’s managed integration platform, and the flexibility, re-usability, and reliability of code. We've already had many beta users transition from the visual workflow builder to using Paragraph, with amazing feedback on how much faster and more robust the process feels. Excited to get your thoughts and suggestions for where to take this. Want to give it a try? Learn more about Paragraph in our docs: https://docs.useparagon.com/para... Feel free to ask me any questions below! Otherwise, it’s time to scale your app’s integration ecosystem! 🚀

Paragon and @foolywk get it! They've listened closely to my team's needs and built the platform and features that has allowed us to focus on our core value and ship and maintain integrations wayyy faster.

The team at Paragon has been great to work with. We started with the visual builder which has already saved us a ton of time and the Paragraph framework will make the integrations behave just like the rest of our codebase and workflow. Keep up the great work, Brandon and team.

The only iPaaS I would use is Paragon - Paragraph will be game-changing for maintainable integrations!

We've got Paragon integrated into our product - and it's been amazing. Paragraph is a major leap forward; not something that's available with any of the other ipaas providers. Getting out of the UI node builders opens up so much possibility.

Congratulations on the release, guys! We integrated Paragon within a few days and turned adding support for an integration into a few clicks vs. weeks of dev time. Keep up the good work, and excited to see where you guys take this!

So excited to share this with the world! Congratulations to the whole Paragon team on all of the hard work behind this.

Congratulations on the release @foolywk and team. Paragraph is an essential step forward because managing infrastructure without code is pretty close to a non-starter for modern development teams.

You don't know you need this until you need it and you will be very thankful using this to simplify your integrations work! Great work Paragon team
