Hi,

I agree with Max that it would be a good idea to have a list of projects
and examples, which are build on top of BaseX. A problem might be that
many applications which are build on top of BaseX are not open source.

@Yoann: Please be aware that there is a Rest and RestXQ implementation
within BaseX, which are quite different. What you most likely want to
use is RestXQ. Some documentation is available at
https://docs.basex.org/wiki/RESTXQ
Using RestXQ itself, there is an example for a blog at
https://github.com/siserle/blog-example

As Max already suggested, the main difference when you use it with
angular or some other framework is that you most likely want to return
JSON, so you have to change the output method.

Cheers,
Dirk
