Loopback-next: [Demo] Provide official implementation of realword.io

[mitsos1os]

Suggestion

Provide an official implementation of the popular realword example with Loobpack 4 using best practices as showcased from the documentation.

Use Cases

I understand that this could be considered achieved by the shopping-example. However, being able to see exactly the same spec being implemented by different frameworks is a very good helper in demonstrating the framework capabilities and also act as a guide for people to switch over from other frameworks.

That's an interesting idea! It would be good to see the community taking this challenge. :)

Some thoughts on how to jump start the effort:

• Use lb4 app to scaffold the backend application
• Use lb4 openapi to generate controllers and models against https://github.com/gothinkster/realworld/blob/master/api/swagger.json
• Use lb4 datasource to add a DB
• Use lb4 repository to bind models to the DB
• Add security layer with JWT
