How Vercel is changing the cloud game

Supabase Next.js Dark Language
  1. An open source Firebase alternative

    What are the alternatives? Well, at the end of the day, my DynamoDB scenario above is nothing but an HTTP API call encapsulated by an SDK function. So basically, I would use Amazon Cognito and OAuth 2.0 credential flows to control access to my DynamoDB tables from my Vercel Serverless Function based on the user’s group membership. I am pretty sure that this is similar to what other public DBaaS solution like Supabase do.

    In all likelihood, many people know Vercel for being the creators of Next.js, a React-based Web development framework with SPA, SSG, and SSR capabilities. But frankly, after discussing what Vercel really is with my colleagues at work several times, it is way more than that:.

  3. Holistic language, editor, and infra for building backends

    I am ranting here, but that is precisely Darklang's mission. I wouldn't go as far as Darklang with Vercel, and I am especially skeptical about the idea of creating its own kind-of-visual programming language. Still, I like the idea of instant deployments as you code, transparently. I mean, with an optimized DPS workflow like Vercel's, why do we need to build on localhost anyway? I guess we are not just prepared for that. To me, one of the main problems of Darklang is that it is too forward-thinking, too advanced for our time, and it does not resolve any of the problems developers have nowadays. In other words, it didn't consider our zeitgeist. It is not meeting their customers (developers) where they are.
