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

  Pocketbase [0] is a possibility. It offers a way to subscribe to collections, meaning the client will be notified if any of the records in that collection change. [1] Should be quite efficient too, the FAQ claims that 10k realtime connections on a small hetzner VPS is no problem [2] [0] https://pocketbase.io/. - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago

• Using Google Sheets as the back end/APIs of your app

  I'd like to plug PocketBase [0] for a similar use case. Last week I was looking for a place to store random data with API access, and was looking at making a Google Sheets backend, but PocketBase was easy and didn't have a 60 rpm quota. Deploying to a cheap VPS was very easy with CapRover. [0] https://pocketbase.io/. - Source: Hacker News / 17 days ago

• Ask HN: What two software products should have a kid?

  Browsing HN, GitHub and the like we get to see a huge variety of software products and code bases. I often see products and think - if this product X, got together with Y, it would be pretty cool - kind of like if they had a kid together. Not too literally, but more on the conceptual level - my level of programming is low. E.g. Just some.... - pocketable.io & datasette (+with some more charting)... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: What development tools are you using for your current project?

  I'm working on a personal project and found myself looking for an alternative to Postman/Insomnia this morning. This made me realize I've been using the same tools for so long for work (mobile development, finance) that this project may be a good time to try out some new things. Here are a few tools that I've been using lately that I really enjoy: https://pocketbase.io/ - A dead-simple self-hosted... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Why you should probably be using SQLite

  I’ve been using Pocketbase[0] on my projects and I can’t recommend it enough. It is built on a SQLite db and has real-time pub/sub capabilities. Its JS SDK is incredibly easy to use and setup for CRUD as well. For side projects and some medium tasks, I’d say SQLite/Pocketbase has been super easy to work with.

• Show HN: SpacetimeDB – The database that replaces your server

  Really cool project, thanks for making it available for others to look at. It really reminds me of https://pocketbase.io/ which has sorta the same idea and can be extended with go/js. How does the database work under the hood? Is it also based on sqlite? Are rust modules built with a special runtime in mind like tokio or? - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
