• Ask HN: How Can I Make My Front End React to Database Changes in Real-Time?

  I'm interested in this problem also! I think there is a large overlap with projects that market/focus on offline-first experiences. AFAIK this problem can be solved by: 1) Considering a client-side copy of the database that gets synced with the remote DB. This is an approach [PowerSync](https://www.powersync.com/) and [ElectricSql](https://electric-sql.com/) and [rxdb](https://rxdb.info/) take! - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago

• You can't leak users' data if you don't hold it

  Hey, after I posted that, I went and gave a second look online to see if I could find something that would allow me to develop a local-first app with offline persistence and syncing capabilities. I ended up finding some possibilities out there that could potentially help me build stuff. One of them is RxDB [1], which offers WebRTC syncing - you'd still need a signaling server, I suppose, but all sensitive... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• SignalDB: Bringing Meteor-Like Reactivity to the Modern Age

  About a year ago, I discovered a cool offline-first framework called RxDB. Initially, I thought that on the frontend side, this was exactly what I had been searching for over the past years. After tinkering around and even using it in production for some time, I realized that it wasn't well-suited for my intended use. RxDB was initially created as an RxJS layer for PouchDB with a server replication interface.... - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago

• Show HN: ElectricSQL, Postgres to SQLite active-active sync for local-first apps

  Congrats to the team. Once I’ve tried https://rxdb.info/ and it wasn’t funny at all to do the remote replication (PG) and to deal with conflicts. I do need to check this out! - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• What did I do to deserve a JavaScript database?

  For anyone who wants to not only make jokes but actuall learn something, I recommend to start with exploring the github repo: https://github.com/pubkey/rxdb. Source: over 1 year ago

• I just realized how expensive Firebase is for Social Media Apps

  I tried to make a reddit like app. I used both realtime-database and firestore as database. The billing of the two is different from each other. I used realtime-database for frequently updated data (like or upvote, downvote count for ex.) and firestore for more stable and large data (post, comment, community and user data..). While doing this, I only used database rules, I did not use Cloud functions. So, I... Source: 11 months ago

• Setting up an auto-email micro function for Firebase RTDB

  Const functions = require("firebase-functions"); // // Create and deploy your first functions // // https://firebase.google.com/docs/functions/get-started // // exports.helloWorld = functions.https.onRequest((request, response) => { // functions.logger.info("Hello logs!", {structuredData: true}); // response.send("Hello from Firebase!"); // });. - Source: dev.to / 11 months ago

• Moving my Android app to Google cloud

  Cloud Functions for Firebase - Pros: Aligns to my app which uses Firebase; Cons: have to use Typescript which I have no experience with. Source: about 1 year ago

• Is it safe to assume the user won't be able to manually call my Firebase functions from the frontend?

  Cloud Functions run on Google's servers and are part of your project, so only you and your project collaborators can deploy that code. Source: over 1 year ago

• React TODO list app but with a twist?

  That would be a Firebase Cloud Function. Check their latest list of YouTube tutorials, they'll guide you through creating an app with full Firebase features. Source: over 1 year ago
