UEBackendBridge is a Blueprint-first backend integration system for Unreal Engine, designed to eliminate the complexity of HTTP requests, JSON parsing, and authentication workflows.
It provides a clean, scalable way to connect your game to external backend services without writing C++ or building a custom networking layer from scratch.
Whether you're building an online RPG, admin tools, or persistent player systems, UEBackendBridge gives you a solid foundation to handle backend communication entirely in Blueprints.

MODULAR ARCHITECTURE

QUICK START
1. Set up your backend API (example endpoints: /ping, /auth/login, /auth/me)
2. Enable the plugin in your project
3. Use the included demo widget to test authentication
4. Replace the demo UI with your own
