Presentation application from Hungary. Haven't used it in a while personally, but even 10 years ago it was miles ahead of what Powerpoint could do.

Having specialized endpoints is kind of required, as the data often needs to be searchable, sortable, filterable and paginated, which would be pretty wasteful, or sometimes even impossible to do on the frontend. I find these kind of REST API-s pretty straight forward to design and implement for the most part, and as others pointed out, onboarding is extremely easy if the new developer on the team has worked in software dev at least for a year or two. This also makes it pretty easy and quick to transition to a fully public API if needed (although I have rarely seen this as a requirement).

Edit: fixed a typo.

I've seen adblockers slowing down browsers significantly if anything other than uBlock Origin is used.
