I've looked at PushTable and FlameLink already, but PushTable didn't seem to work at all, and FlameLink is really out of the budget for a small site like this. Source: over 2 years ago

I'm not sure I'd say Firestore is the ideal "serverless" backend for a Svelte app, but it sure does make it easier to develop and iterate faster. Plus with Flamelink it's provided a decent solution for use with a full-blown non-technical CMS system that we didn't have to build. Flamelink offers some primitive relational db style functionality (e.g. Some document fields can be references to other documents) which... Source: almost 3 years ago

We've gone with Firebase for our "backend" needs. This is primarily just firestore for data, cloud-functions for database sanitization, auth, and basic usability analytics. We're using it in conjunction with a CMS service called Flamelink that allows the non-technical folks on our team to add content to firebase in reasonably intuitive way without us needing to build/maintain a second app just for...

The main draw of any CMS is that it lets authorized users customize content without having any knowledge of how to code. If someone knows how to use a text editor, then they should be able to create new content using the CMS. I’m going to teach you how to set up Firebase and add Flamelink to your Angular application. You’ll have it up and running in short order! - Source: dev.to / over 3 years ago

Even Strapi needs to be hosted somewhere, and that usually involves a recurring fee. I've had great success over the past 2 years building blogs using http://webiny.com, and because they get low traffic, I've only ever had 1 bill from AWS that was around 80 cents US. Source: almost 2 years ago

Strapi is awesome, I've been a fan of the project since its early days. However, I've been closely watching Webiny too. It's easier to host because you don't have to worry about running Docker containers or installing MongoDB on your local machine. Instead you put it on your AWS account (can be done with a few clicks), define your content models once it's there and you then only pay for usage. http://webiny.com. Source: about 2 years ago

Yeah I hear you, SAAS CMS platforms can get prohibitively expensive really quickly after the initial free tier expires. I've found hosting Strapi (or similar) on Heroku has saved me the cost of keeping a server instance running, which usually would cost $5-10 per month. However, the most cost effective for me so far has been Webiny. It's serverless so you install it on AWS and typically don't pay as much (if... Source: about 2 years ago

Otherwise if you want a framework to build on, there's Redwood (which works particularly well on Netlify and Vercel) or Webiny (for AWS, Azure and others). - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
