Reviewer scorecard
“Full BaaS that you can self-host. Functions, auth, storage, and databases with good SDKs.”
“The code quality is surprisingly good — real shadcn components, not generic divs with inline styles. Saves me 2-3 hours per UI component.”
“Solid Firebase alternative that's open source and self-hostable. The Docker-based deployment is straightforward.”
“Does one thing extremely well: turning ideas into working UI. It won't replace a designer, but it eliminates the blank canvas problem.”
“Open-source BaaS is the right model. Appwrite and Supabase represent the future of backend services.”
“As a creator, I can now prototype landing pages in minutes instead of hours. The Figma-to-code flow is a game changer for my workflow.”
