PocketBase

This here is some quality work top to bottom, including the documentation and the website.

Very nice, I thought it was a basic wrapper around SQLite but then realized it actually had more features then that, such as it's own admin dashboard. Then I realized you built…

This looks like a great solution for rapid prototyping scenarios where you want a basic CRUD backend with as little friction as possible. The API preview feature in the admin…

This is fantastic work. Supabase local development has always been a pain.

I really like this. All my current projects use Go as a backend and I definitely need my own routes and business logic, so PocketBase looks way easier to integrate into my…

feedback: re the site: i have no idea what you mean by a "backend". If it's got a "admin dashboard" it's got a UI which means it's got a front-end which means it's not a backend.…

Nice but my super anal quip is please don't call this thing "realtime". It doesn't make sense in this context. What is realtime about it? Are there timing guarantees or are…

You may want to check Supabase or Nhost in that case. PocketBase was specifically designed to be self-contained and running only on a single server.

Other than some json functions, PocketBase doesn't use too much SQLite specific features, but I don't plan adding support for other databases at the moment. Please also note that…

I would love it. But: postgres, +backups, +replica managment. Basically a managed database for postgres in a container.

Sweet. How tightly is this coupled to SQLite? I’d like to embed Dolt [0] instead, specifically for the Dolthub-backed collaboration model. [0] https://github.com/dolthub/dolt

Currently you cannot create indexes through the admin UI, but it's in my todo. As an alternative, you can always create indexes through DB migrations or add the index directly…

Any client SDKs for Android, iOS, React, etc.

This is cool. I think it would also be neat to have option to have Litestream [1] integration so that users can use this without any persistent volume or worry about back ups [1]…

How are the real time subscriptions with SQLite achieved? Is this a feature of SQLite itself or something that PocketBase itself implements on top of it?

This looks great! Does this have support for offline usage on the client?

Congrats! What a lovely project. What a fantastic job! Question: I am currently evaluating Ory/Kratos as authentication backend for a side project. Ory Kratos is a mature and…

PocketBase is a small open source project that I've been working for the last couple of months. You could think of PocketBase as a lightweight Firebase/Supabase alternative. In…

You may want to check Supabase or Nhost in that case. PocketBase was specifically designed to be self-contained and running only on a single server.

It's a lightweight replacement for Firebase. I That's why it is described as a backend, because it's primary feature is to act as a data store. If don't understand what a project…

For anyone curious, another popular open-source backend as a service is AppWrite: https://appwrite.io/ I've tried them out for some dummy projects and they seem pretty great, and…
