Reviewer scorecard
“Full BaaS that you can self-host. Functions, auth, storage, and databases with good SDKs.”
“Jest-compatible API with Vite's speed. ESM and TypeScript work without configuration. The watch mode is instant.”
“Solid Firebase alternative that's open source and self-hostable. The Docker-based deployment is straightforward.”
“If you're using Vite, Vitest is the obvious choice. Even without Vite, the speed improvement over Jest is significant.”
“Open-source BaaS is the right model. Appwrite and Supabase represent the future of backend services.”
“Vitest is replacing Jest as the default test runner. Speed and modern JavaScript support drive the migration.”
