As long as they are implemented in JavaScript (single-page application, React Native, Electron, etc.), you can have multiple frontends connected to one (or several) backends.

If your frontend cannot be implemented in JavaScript, it can speak to the backend by sending Deepr queries with simple HTTP POSTs.

Finally, if you need a REST or GraphQL API to expose your application to external developers in a more standard way, it is possible to add it to the backend while keeping the "API-less" approach for all your internal needs.
