Open-source backend platform — auth, database, storage and functions.

PlatformsWeb, Windows, Mac, Linux

Why we recommend it

For designers prototyping real applications, it removes the backend problem without locking the project into a proprietary platform you can't leave.

Strengths

  • Self-hostable — no vendor lock-in
  • Auth, database, storage and functions in one system
  • SDKs for most major frameworks

Keep in mind

  • Self-hosting needs Docker and ongoing maintenance
  • Smaller ecosystem than Firebase or Supabase
  • Cloud tier is younger and less proven
