Reviewer scorecard
“Self-hosted option with complete CI/CD and security scanning. The single-platform approach reduces tool sprawl.”
“Hasura-powered GraphQL over Postgres with auth and storage. The GraphQL-first approach is powerful for complex data needs.”
“If you need self-hosted git with built-in CI/CD, GitLab is the clear choice. The all-in-one approach saves integration headaches.”
“If you want GraphQL, Nhost is the best BaaS option. Hasura's automatic GraphQL from Postgres is genuinely useful.”
“GitHub's ecosystem and Actions marketplace have won the mindshare battle. GitLab is strong for enterprise self-hosted.”
“GraphQL adoption has plateaued. tRPC and REST are simpler for most use cases. Nhost's bet on GraphQL is risky.”
