Creating an example for an app with backend component

[tab0r]

The plugin-tools command yarn create @grafana/plugin allows creation of an app with backend, but we don't have an example for it yet. Since it's what I need for a current project, I thought I'd share what I came up with.

I definitely agree with both points @mckn . I'm not sure how much of that I can get done in the short term, as I'm honestly not sure how much work it entails. But, tomorrow I'll be pairing with a teammate to discuss our implementation plans. There's a chance that taking care of those things will be just want we need to get started on our project. If not, I wouldn't be opposed to closing this and creating an issue for it so that it can be tackled as availability opens up.

Okay, no worries! I can help you with those changes if that feels ok? @wbrowne before I proceed, can you have a look at the BE code?

Thank you @mckn and @wbrowne ! After the team discussion I mentioned we decided to not go down this path at the moment. But now I'm invested! So still keeping an eye on this and will jump back in when I can. :smile:

Thank you so much for cleaning this up for me @mckn ! I'll leave the pleasure of pushing the big green button to you, it's only fair. :D
