In the fast-paced world of trading, ease of use and rapid development are as important as performance. While many trading platforms require developers to work with complex JavaScript frameworks, FiSDK takes a different approach—prioritizing simplicity and accessibility without compromising functionality.

Why FiSDK Avoids Complex JS Frameworks

Most modern web applications rely on frameworks such as React, Angular, or Vue to handle state management, event handling, and dynamic rendering. While powerful, these frameworks come with steep learning curves and require additional setup, build tools, and dependencies.

FiSDK deliberately avoids these complexities. By providing a plain JavaScript interface, it allows users to interact with the trading backend directly, without needing advanced frontend knowledge or framework-specific conventions.

Targeting Quantitative Traders Without Programming Backgrounds

Fintechee recognized that many quantitative traders do not come from a software development background. These users need access to trading APIs and dashboard customization, but they should not be required to learn full-fledged frontend frameworks to do so.

FiSDK’s lightweight design empowers non-technical traders to:

• Monitor positions and risk

• Execute trades and manage accounts

• Build custom dashboards

All with minimal coding effort.

Minimal Tech Stack: HTML + JS

FiSDK enables users to build custom front-end management tools using just an HTML file and a JavaScript file. For example, a typical setup consists of:

• dashboard.html: The container for the user interface

• ui.js: The JavaScript file interacting with FiSDK

This minimal tech stack reduces setup time, eliminates dependency issues, and allows users to start building immediately—no compilation or complex configuration required.

Faster Onboarding and Reduced Development Cost

By removing the need to learn heavy frameworks, FiSDK allows traders and administrators to start working immediately. This leads to:

• Shorter onboarding times for new users

• Faster prototype development

• Reduced training costs

• Quicker deployment of custom dashboards or internal tools

The simplicity of FiSDK ensures that users can focus on trading strategy and operations, rather than frontend technicalities.

Comparison with Framework-Heavy Approaches

Traditional framework-heavy approaches require users to:

• Learn the framework’s syntax and architecture

• Set up build tools like Webpack or Vite

• Manage complex dependencies and updates

FiSDK eliminates these barriers. Its plain JavaScript design provides a lightweight, efficient, and flexible solution, making backend management more accessible without sacrificing control or functionality.
