this…. is really good… add this to a list of favorites of these types of apps along with baserow and nocodb, but this one is immediately better because it’s go and a single executable, which is every ops guys’ dream
the extensibility through libraries is even cooler….
add in sqlite and it’s almost perfect, i say almost but i can’t quite come up with a reason it isn’t, besides it wasn’t what i had envisioned when thinking about building something similar, will be downloading it ASAP and giving it a whirl for personal tracking type items
I’m not sure I completely grok this thing, but it’s striking me as similar to the venerable CouchDB, but with a relational instead of document (JSON) database. It’s interesting that it exposes a stripped-down query API (judging by the JS snippets on the home page) instead of SQL.
I assume it serves static HTML pages and you do all the logic in front-end code?
You’re right: it was bait. I responded that way because not everyone is from a web background and TBH even after looking at the Firebase homepage I still wasn’t 100% sure what it was.

Yes it reminds me of a more stripped-down version of AppWrite which also seems cool.
thanks for sharing, didn’t know about this!
made me think to also dig up this one that i’ve been watching: https://avohq.io/

Think of it as a lightweight firebase.
I’ve never used Firebase, but its interesting-to-me feature is client-side replication for offline-first apps. PocketBase has that too?
What does firebase do?
I’ll take the bait, even though the answer is one Google search away:

Thanks for being a good sport. :]
