• Best Orm that uses Graphql and Postgres

  If you point is to abstract all the CRUD/GraphQL application, Go isn’t needed. You can go with PostgREST or Postgraphile. Source: over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Locally generate GraphQL schema and resolvers from DB

  What do you mean locally? Hasura is OSS, and you can run it locally (you have autogenerated SQL statements) Here you can just use Nhost and its CLI; Alternatives are https://github.com/graphile/postgraphile or dgraph as you mentioned. Hasura is working on support for sqlite, so you may have some blockers there, you can also look into the Prisma engine which has GQL as an intermediate (for resolvers, for example). - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Supabase (YC S20) raises $80M Series B

  I've personally found Postgraphile to be fantastic. Nicer to use than Hasura and fully OSS: https://github.com/graphile/postgraphile/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• GraphQL is now available on Supabase

  Hi all, this sounds very cool. How does pg_graphql compare to Postgraphile? https://github.com/graphile/postgraphile (besides I guess running in the DB with PLpgSQL instead of as a NodeJS server) Did you think about integrating Postgraphile with the Supabase ecosystem or have specific limitations with it? Thanks! - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Are there actually better alternatives than Apollo server?

  If you’re open to learning Postgres, I’d recommend postgraphile (https://github.com/graphile/postgraphile). Been using it for the past 2.5 years and only have good things to say. Source: over 2 years ago

• The End of Airplane.dev

  I am building https://github.com/claceio/clace and https://retool.com/, allow automation of operational tasks through a web interface while also allowing fully custom web apps. Clace also works great for running simple web apps locally. Building and deploying a web app should be as easy and common for backend engineers as creating a CLI app is. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• FastUI: Build Better UIs Faster

  This seems to mainly be useful for spinning up quick and dirty internal tools. But for that use-case, isn't it easier to use something visual and established like Retool (https://retool.com/) or that generates nice react code, like MUI Toolpad (https://mui.com/toolpad/)? - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Internal tools often make bad startup ideas

  There are obvious counterexamples, like https://retool.com, which is a successful company with solid revenue and multi-B valuation. > software engineers — who are often influencers in a purchase decision — are strongly incentivized to build instead of buy Regardless of what software engineers would rather do, pressure from real users trumps pressure from internal users. This especially true in startups, whose... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• YC: Requests for Startups

  I submitted an application for w24 that fits in the "Developer tools inspired by existing internal tools" category but wasn't accepted. I suspect my pitch probably needed work, and I also haven't started building at all yet and submitted as a solo-founder which it seems has less chance of being accepted. Here's the pitch and some details, in case anyone else is interested in the idea: > Supportal uses AI to... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• A list of SaaS, PaaS and IaaS offerings that have free tiers of interest to devops and infradev

  ReTool — Low-code platform for building internal applications. Retool is highly hackable. If you can write it with JavaScript and an API, you can make it in Retool. The free tier allows up to five users per month, unlimited apps and API connections. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago
