If you want the bells and whistles for the UI, fine, React/Vue/Svelte will help.

If you just want something that achieves the goal, without bringing new skills or dependencies, HTMX is the way.

I've used HTMX with Alpine for a backend application, and they help on making the application more dynamic, along with Tailwindcss a lot of the frontend effort is complete.

Here I am, thinking this was going to be some new service announcement. Clicking on the link, and boom, "Amazing work".

Hi y'all,

I'm building Singlebase.Cloud[1], the next generation BaaS, that will provide a NoSQL Datastore, Authentication, Storage, Search, Image processing, Analytics and more.

All with a friendly API to access and manipulate your data via SQL, GraphQL, REST.

Granted it's not a SQL DB, it provides a SQL interface to query and update your data.

And for GraphQL, your data becomes the schema. There is no need to build a schema, whatever you throw at it, it will return it, if it exists in the response. Making the GraphQL a presentation layer. (I think it's cool)

Let me know what you think of the idea.

Checkout Hetzner. You will love their infrastructure. You will love their price.

Goodbye Linode. They should have at least left the name. We know business is business, but business is business, therefor Goodbye Linode. Goodbye!

Loving it. I'm interested in milli-py.

What can be a cool feature, it's auto backup to S3, or load from S3.

It's Christmas at Supabase. These folks be dropping features like gifts every day.

Good job!

While UUID4 can be good for UserID. Sometimes, to avoid having a second index in the DB, ULID is another good option; As not only it supports some of the features of UUID4 of uniqueness, it is also sortable.

If interested in self hosted alternative, which can be hosted on Digital Ocean, Linode, Hetzner, check out Sailor[1]. Sailor[1] is a tiny PaaS to install on your servers/VPS that uses git push to deploy micro-apps, micro-services, sites with SSL, on your own servers or VPS, similar to Heroku

I have a Python and TypeScript background, and I worked with them on a daily basis as a web developer.

Rust will be more familiar and easy on the eyes, as the syntax and concepts are close to friendlier languages.

I just started to get into Rust as well, and so far I'm loving it.

Here are some resources to help throughout the journey:

Good luck and have fun!

Glad Fabric is still around. But Ansible is simpler and the way to really go now.

You focus mainly on the tasks that you need with Ansible instead of the scripts.

Also you have a whole community of Ansible plugins that you can reuse for your own.

Fabric was good at one point, but it missed the migration period to Python 3, hence pushing everyone away.

I'm not even sure Fabric is on the safest Python 3.8 yet.

Fabric was fun though.

(Shameless plug)

Here's a tiny PAAS that can be used if Caddy is too complex.

Hetzner is a very good alternative. They now have VPS in Virginia/USA.

Heroku is getting hammered like crazy this week on HN

Similar to Heroku deploy flow, checkout Sailor, a tiny PaaS to install on your servers/VPS that uses git push to deploy micro-apps, micro-services, sites with SSL, on your own servers or VPS.

That would be it. People would flood them.

If you want to do it yourself, checkout Sailor[0].
