Someone reset the counter. Just kidding. This looks pretty great!

5y agoHN ↗

I'm a bit out of the loop, but which counter?

5y agoHN ↗

"Days since someone announced a new self-hosted hosting on complicated hosting" :)

thanks!

Does anyone find the flutter app samples?

On the linked website above (https://spaceuptech.com/) they say that they have app sample apps for ... and Flutter.

I can't find any on their github repo. Does anyone have better eyes than me?

5y agoHN ↗

The homepage no longer longer contains the word Flutter.

Their github account has zero repo's with Dart or Flutter.

If you saw it then I guess they changed it and will show Flutter demo's in the future?

Flutter is definitely a solid and viable front-end.

While you've still got the spotlight... show us what you've got SpaceUpTech!

Which are the biggest app using firebase ? I guess firebase is gaining traction, does google reports it’s revenue ?

5y agoHN ↗

Looks like the architecture link in the GitHub is broken. May want to look into that.

It‘s nice that a self-hosting PaaS is built again, i have the hope that one in the end will really get traction and is not dead a few month after it has been announced.

But what i really would like to see would be a self-hosted postgresql as a service. All these solutions need to reinvent this again and again. If there would be one solution with a good backup concept (!) like wal-g integrated all these new PaaS could skip the DBaaS step and just concentrate on the code as a service part. Their feature set would be a lot smaller which may lead to these projects living longer.

Tldr: We need a self-hostable PostgreSql as a Service all these PaaS could depend on.

5y agoHN ↗

How do you want the responsibilities to be split between you the self-hoster and the software vendor?

5y agoHN ↗

I self host Postgres all the time. I just install it on my server. Sometimes i use RDS if a feel fancy.

5y agoHN ↗

Noob question: does this supports offline syncing like firestore?

5y agoHN ↗

To me the whole point of PaaS is not needing to know which components are powering my app. So I don’t get what this is about.

Seems quite similar to Hasura. Looks neat.
