• 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.

• 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

  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 / 8 months ago

• How I migrated from Firebase to Supabase

  I didn't really give much thought as to which backend I would use. I already had 2 projects in Supabase (BOXCUT & MineWork), but also a few projects in Firebase too. I was more concerned at the time at actually building the product. - Source: dev.to / 6 days ago

• The 2024 Web Hosting Report

  Backend as a Service (BaaS) goes back to early 2010’s with companies like Parse and Firebase.
