> Deta Space made it really easy for me as dev to build something like WebCrate quickly and it's also awesome for users. The app keeps running even if I disappear and hosting, auth etc. is all handled for me Ah yeah, love the concept, I had similar goals in mind when making Cardi (although I wasn't aware of many options at the time for putting data in control of the user -- I ended up just having people log in with A…

Yeah it's an awesome concept!

Cardi looks great too! Might be worth to see if you can port it to Space, would make it easier for non-tech people to use it!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Not out of the box no. You could fork and modify it, but that would take a lot of work. Can't recommend Deta Space enough though, it is kind of like self-hosting it without managing an actual server!

I know not directly related to WebCrate, but it looks like the signup for DetaSpace is broken, so I am unable to try WebCrate. When I try to sign up for DetaSpace, I get the following message: > Exceeded daily email limit for the operation or the account. If a higher limit is required, please configure your user pool to use your own Amazon SES configuration for sending email.

Yeah sorry about that! I contacted the Space team and they are working on fixing it!

You should be signed up, but the confirmation emails are not going out. Maybe try again in a few hours!

This is the second project I see here on Deta Space but I dont exactly follow what Deta Space is... is it a cloud service that hosts the app for you, under your account? I did not sign-up because I didn't see any pricing page. Then there's Deta Cloud, which has pricing, but it's all so unclear as to what I am signing up for.
