Reviewer scorecard
“Hasura-powered GraphQL over Postgres with auth and storage. The GraphQL-first approach is powerful for complex data needs.”
“Remote caching and affected-only testing save enormous CI time. The project graph visualization is invaluable for large repos.”
“If you want GraphQL, Nhost is the best BaaS option. Hasura's automatic GraphQL from Postgres is genuinely useful.”
“If you have a monorepo with more than 5 projects, Nx pays for itself in CI time savings on day one.”
“GraphQL adoption has plateaued. tRPC and REST are simpler for most use cases. Nhost's bet on GraphQL is risky.”
“Monorepos are winning. Nx and Turborepo are making them practical at any scale.”
