## What it is
The official JavaScript SDK for the Parse Platform, providing client access to Parse Server backends from JavaScript apps. It supports data queries, authentication, file storage, and Cloud Code across Node.js, browser, and other JS environments.

## Use cases
- connect a JavaScript app to a Parse Server backend
- query and save objects to a Parse database from the browser
- add user sign-up and login with Parse in Node.js
- use third-party OAuth authentication with Parse
- call Parse Cloud Code functions from a client
- build a mobile or web app with a Parse backend

## When to choose
- your backend is Parse Server or you want a Parse-based BaaS
- you need a maintained official client SDK for Parse in JavaScript
- you want cross-platform JS support (browser, Node.js, React Native)

## When to avoid
- you use a different backend like Firebase or Supabase
- you need a raw REST client rather than a Parse-specific SDK
- your project does not use Parse Platform at all
