Pocketbase – open-source realtime back end in 1 file

I see Pocketbase, I upvote. Using it in a few production apps and it's been a very solid experience. Some breaking changes from time to time, but generally very solid. Also has a lot of extensibility built in. Sometimes you might hit a scenario where it doesn't provide what you need, which is when things can get a bit hairy, but nothing a skilled dev can't work around.

Pocketbase is amazing! So far I had a great experience using it as a backend/database for the app I'm building where I'm using React with Vite for the frontend. I'm using it mainly for auth and for keeping track of paid and free accounts. Some things that I found rather useful: - It's super easy to host. I was initially thinking of using Appwrite or Supabase but found it a tricky to self-host them, especially Supabase. I could spin up…

The biggest difference from other backend solutions like Firebase, Supabase, Nhost, etc., is that *PocketBase actually could be used as a Go framework that enables you to build your own custom app specific business logic and still have a single portable executable at the end.* UPD.
