The mismatch of code fluidity and the rigidity of the RDBMS is why we created https://schemafreesql.com . We ofcourse looked at NOSQL but our fondness of SQL kept us from consideri…

This is one of the reasons we created https://schemafreesql.com . We wanted SQL with some of the document store (NOSQL) features.

Thanks !! We had hoped to use PS for our serverless backend and also offer a dedicated PS option. But we ran into some issues with Vitess. I was just thinking today I wanted to get…

We accomplish similar with SchemafreeSQL. Currently MySQL 8 back-end but working on other SQL back-ends. This demo uses PlanetScale as the DB back-end, Fly.io handles the SFSQL end…

SFSQL does have a rules API not implemented in our Hosted Offering. We have plans to enable it.

Eric and I have been together since 1997 solving problems with this thing called the Internet. Dynamics yes you can call it that. The comment was tongue and cheek about the code. E…

You are correct there is a "schema" behind behind the scenes. Managing complex relationships between data and evolving those relationships can be a daunting task. SFSQL was created…

This is a failure of the UI. I believe you clicked on "A Document Store like Mongo" and saw "Create a 'brand' table" which then goes on to explain why a document store does not ade…

Yes I see what you mean by "infomercial" when comparing SFSQL to EdgeDb. Was not our intention, its a work in progress. Will make the needed changes, thanks again for feedback.

The focus is on value prop. and yes the docs are lacking. Your feedback to include a comparison of our language to SQL is good. I was hoping the breakdown of the "shop admin" demo …

Hi HN, I'm Dean, the non-technical co-founder of SchemafreeSQL. We released our beta version about a year ago. You can see the HN Post here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=302…

Have you looked at planetscale.

It would not work in its current state but we have plans for a Lambda compatable offering. We are also looking at fly.io and other "serverless" function providers.

In a self hosted model developers would host SFSQL on their own infrastructure, which could be AWS, Google, Azure, DO, etc.. There is no reliance on us. Yes we are maintaining the …

Great question. We have shut down our consulting business and are all in on SFSQL. We will not be offering a FOSS solution. Our plans are to provide SFSQL via a subscription based …

I see, thanks we will change the verbiage. We tried to remove friction by allowing beta account creation without a password and one click demo account creation. You can start using…

Looks like chrome pw gen does not generate a special character we have removed that restriction. Please try again.

Checking into this now.

A more detailed response will be provided shortly but I do encourage you to launch a demo, https://schemafreesql.com/demo.html . You will be provided with an endpoint and access ke…

I would hope that the “what” SFSQL is doing for you is answered on our home page, if not our apologies. We are constantly working on describing the benefits of using SFSQL. “How” w…

Hi HN, we're Eric and Dean, creators of SchemafreeSQL. Its roots go back to an on-line Web App Development Environment we developed back in 1999. It was comprised of an IDE, Web Se…
