I can’t believe this stack is actually good

[@akauppi2]

Appreciated how you describe the thinking behind tool selection. Very clear presentation - nothing to leave out, likely nothing to add. #perfect

[@TheHermitHacker]

This combo is amazing. I have my company's control panel build around SvelteKit + Pocketbase. I am using Pocketbase as a framework and extended it out.

[@bmdavis419]

Yea this is exactly where IMO it thrives

[@Frostbytedigital]

The extensibility is one of the best parts! Personally I have to have routes for raw sql queries but adding them with auth is so simple

[@good-dev-student]

Really? Can someone give us a repos as example?

[@TheHermitHacker]

@good-dev-student I cannot share my private code.

[@sonic8873]

Just search up pocketbade CRUD very easy u can build urself ​@@good-dev-student

[@andrewthomas3947]

90% of the websites has less than 10million users/visitor. Pockekbase is great in these traffic range

[@bmdavis419]

This is 100% true, I definitely should have clarified that by scale I did not mean traffic scale, but complexity/feature scale. The auth rules are just not scalable past a few tables IMO thats the real problem

[@enkiimuto1041]

I really like how you talk about your decisions.

[@bman007fl]

Oh, yes. I've been running this for a project that is a small containerized instance I can spin up quickly amongst multiple teams. It gets even better once you run the Go Extensible version, then you can really make it functional with back-end CRON jobs. Having too much fun with both of these.

[@bmdavis419]

Yea this is a huge thing I probably should have covered, using it from a go BE is so good

For many years I loved dynamic typing with ruby, after more years with golang, typescript and pydantic it is hard to go back. I like your technical choices. PB can definitely scale for the majority of projects.

[@albertosalas285]

You can even embed your static front end files in pocketbase and get the back end to serve them. It only takes a couple of lines of codes amd in fact that is the approach taken to serve the admin dashboard

[@bmdavis419]

Ye I need to set this up

[@adel.dev.account]

Thanks... I would love to try this stack

[@williamclark4143]

Can we expect a Pocketbase from 0 to production similar to your Supabase 0 to prod? because I would love to see that as your supabase video was just amazing

[@jeffreysmith9837]

Looking forward to the new stack you'll pick next week

[@bmdavis419]

me too

[@TarzyRage]

You're AMAZING! - Would be nice tho, to see your spin on a SSR with pocketbase! ;) - I think you'll nail it!

[@danishezwan9320]

its the best tool to deliver fast, i have made my system using angular, flutter and pb, dish a product out quickly and use it as conversation starter for future customer easy to fail fast and iterate

[@jyjyjyj3]

I think Pocketbase will also be a great pair with Astro

[@bmdavis419]

That is actually a really good take, I think the two would be perfect for each other for like a blog site or something like that

[@jyjyjyj3]

@@bmdavis419 And I think it's also great from a learning perspective or trying out new front-end technologies. You don't have to think about your backend stuff and you can switch or mix different technologies on the front end thanks to astro islands

Please make a video on mobile app development with Sveltekit + CapacitorJS + Supabase! I think this will really be the most productive stack overtaking React Native in the future

[@jamesgphillips91]

I’ve been working with next and pocket base. Pb is awesome

[@hakuna_matata_hakuna]

pocketbase can probably meet your production worklods , almost 10k writes per second. the issue would be replicatng the sqlite instance . you can aso use the hooks for finer graned validations or even use it as a framework and use it as a go package

[@massy-3961]

PocketBase is extremely underrated. If they adopt Turso over SQLite scalability wouldn’t be as bad, not to mention you can extend it with Golang if you need more functionality.

[@bmdavis419]

Yea I don't think server scale is the problem, its more the complexity scale. Pocketbase collections are not good for complex data models I will die on that hill

[@BhideSvelte]

Sveltekit + Pocketbase is Good for Building Quick Stuff , no one actually noticed it .... Astro + Pocketbase tooo Good timing of video as always

[@zip2830]

Should go well with Nuxt as well right?

[@bmdavis419]

yep, any FE framework would work

[@John_FritzTheCat_Doe]

What kind of graphic editor are you using there?

I wish someone built a real application on pocketbase

Thoughts on sveltekit vs nuxt?

Interesting. Try securing it at network layer id it is only ten.

I generally do too

[@pookiepats]

🤦‍♂throws it on a $4 VPS "but can it scale ?!". brotha you never really wanted to know. Most devs that talk like this know Go & SQLite have good if not great performance, they probably are even aware of WAL; what they're really lamenting is they don't know how easy it is to maintain because they haven't tried. Litestream baby.

[@iulikdev]

wtf it's pocketbase? Where you get this? You can't use a database like postgres?

[@vormavius]

node in backend is never good, unless u plan to serve less than 1k customers. Anything beyond that is a completely joke, any benchmark can prove you are like 50x wrong.

[@drksbr]

Pocketbase os build on golang

[@josecontreras6981]

What would be a better choice ?

[@paulholsters7932]

Best stack: EdgeDB (complex modeling) node/express angular/ primeNG flutter vercel

[@benbowers3613]

EdgeDB goes hard. It unironically removes the need for an ORM. Flutter + angular is a weird flex tho lol

[@ivan.jeremic]

no and no

[@good-dev-student]

Angular lol 😂

[@HoeSzyslak]

just use appsmith guys stop wasting time unless you are learning. but anotherbase is just bad and will eventually reach student loan levels of technical debt.

I don’t really know what you are talking about.
