IMHO these are the 3 open source backend/platform -as-a-service solutions you need to have a eye one: 1) Directus (in my view the best offering of features) 2) Supabase (if you want more performance. the admin ui however can only be used for internal access) 3) Appwrite (works good and has its own advantages. however in my case i would rather go with 1&2) -Strapi is out since v4 (too many really big showstopers. i wa…
If you're looking for something like Appwrite or Supabase but with a more end-to-end typesafety approach + optimistic updates, check out Thin Backend https://thin.dev/ ( https://github.com/digitallyinduced/thin-backend ) It takes a bit more of a higher level approach to database operations than appwrite, supabase or firebase, which allows us to do things like optimistic updates that are hard to do in other tools.

Is it completely open source seems like there is a dependency on ihp-backend? Can someone pls clarify

Hi there, Appwrite maintainer here Appwrite v0.14 was just released with 4 new cloud function runtimes, 3 new storage adaptors, 3 new OAuth providers, a precision event model, and many quality of life improvements. We’d love to get feedback on improvements and features as we gear towards v1.0 of Appwrite. TL;DR -> https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite What is an Appwrite? Appwrite is an open source backend-as-a-servic…
i think true Firebase alternative should be compatible with Firebase clients, no?
Appwrite and supabase make CRUD apps easier to write. It's different. I guess Firebase expanded to being used for everything but it was all about realtime apps originally (ex-Firebase developer here)
I like these apps but I find the positioning weird given their feature set
Many of these competitors are missing: offline persistence, optimistic updates, local cache, push updates, command pipelining and casual consistency. Which is cool but to me this is missing the main point of Firebase which was about making modern, reactive apps simpler to develop. Appwrite and supabase make CRUD apps easier to write. It's different. I guess Firebase expanded to being used for everything but it was al…
