I've learnt a lot from you and gained more confidence in getting into programming currently learning Python and GO, and these open source projects you keep sharing really help, Thanks!
Lmao 😂 bro should of worded that different "make sure my backend can handle multiple users at a time" 😅😅 thank you for the chuckle 😂 made my morning 😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😅😂😂
I known it's not possible but pocket base indeed can handle a lot more concurrent users with open websocket connections on the same hardware compared to any custom backend, especially node
“Handle multiple users at the same time”, really gotta try your best not to be able to do that tbh. Even in 1995 (when php was released), or before that, it was pretty trivial
If your app uses SQLServer then microsoft already has a solution = localDB. This allows you to connect to a DB and even query it like with MSSM without needing a turn your local machine into a DB server A lightweight and accessible DB
Other than being FOSS, it is also self-hosted and extendable. The latter meaning you can import the Pocket base functionality inside a Go or Node project. This allows you to build out your own backend using Pocketbase as a framework, rather than completely relying on the built in functionality. Also, Pocketbase's data store is relational vs Firebase's json document scheme. This is better for 99% of applications.
This doesnt sound good production for 2 reasons: 1. Uses sqlite, 2. Can only have 1 instance of this server at a time Looks like single point of failure to me
This is the worst tool to use, there are many more mature options. also how will this scale ? it's sqlite so we can kiss replication goodbye , so the only way to scale up is to buy bigger server....
Just dockerized it and built around a chat app with react, thats a very good tool And its open source so, if it does not have something you can always add to it
I’m like almost 9 months coding, I could’ve understand shit what you were talking about, but now Jesus feels so good to understand what the hell you talking, my impostor syndrome is fading more and more hahaha
I've been programming for a few years and there's so many times where I still don't understand or know what I'm doing! Keep up the work man! Just be confident and pretend you know what you're doing even if you don't. That's how we learn. Fake it til you make it!
The downside of PocketBase is embedded SQLite, so replication is not possible. And the infrastructure becomes inflexible. Not great if your requirements change with growing users.
For me the fastest way to build a backend is fast API Funny I feel Django is actually very nice to get something done fast I know there will be many controversies but chill Django gives you an admin dashboard, and many other core functions like user model e.t.c out of the box , let's not also forget about it's scalability Honestly it's so much easier to setup especially when using drf
SQLite can handle thousands of reads and writes a second even on low quality hardware. If your backend really does that amount of operations a second then you would be rich and hire a senior dev to migrate to postgresql if you want to 😅
@@CodingWithLewis wouldn’t it make more sense to learn html and css since they are much more easier and by the time he picks up JS he will be able to build projects as he acquires more advanced JS skills. Plus this way it’s easier to stay motivated and not get discouraged
SQLite is fine when all your load can be served by a single backend process on a single machine. The moment you need multiple backends to handle more load, or the moment you need high availability, you can't do it with SQLite. Now, for streaming backups - how do you come back from node failure? You're going to incur downtime downloading your DB. Not to mention migrating to other databases as the volume grows will need a rigorous planning as well. I don't feel comfortable using sqlite as a server's database, but it's absolutely fine for mini database inside client machine.
Question :-- Is FireBase Good Option For Building Site Like Community Sites/Forum Sites?? Me and My Team Building Site For Our Final Year Project And Thinking To Use NodeJs
Firebase should be okay for such projects. But if you're using nodejs then go for something better since firebase is used to avoid the need of a server.
It depends. If you make small project that don't expect it to grow much, this will be fine. But if it's a big project, and you expect some growing userbase, I don't recommend using this.
Listen mate, your customers probably don't care about what's going behind your client side code, if you know pocketbase good enough that you can create a working demo for your financer or early users, You'll save yourself from the trouble of spending thousands of hours writing custom optimised code and configuring aws just to know that nobody wants to put money in this thing and neither people want to use it.
It only scales vertically. But it's so efficient that, if you ever actually reach the point where horizontal scalling becomes the better choice, you probably have more than enough resources to migrate to whatever you want. And since it's a self-hosted, open source database, you can migrate much more easily than you could with most proprietary, cloud-only services.
SQLite in WAL mode (which is what PocketBase uses) is faster than most other relational databases. Go is a language designed to make reliable and easy to deploy server-side applications. What's wrong with either of these choices?
@@ahmedaghadi8281backend means it can handle lots of users at the same time. Saying multiple users is like saying 2 or 3 users and it sounds funny i guess 😅
Not a huge fan of BaaS's, but I heard of it, and it seems cool! Something I do for my side projects is, I have a pretty robust template, and just copy over a lot of boilerplate, like Auth, etc. So you can really go similar speeds with any backend lang/framework after a certain point, in my experience, and have full ownership/configurability
Sqlite3 database? What about concurrent transactions? Sqlite3 is great however if anything tries to connect when there's already an existing connection, the db just spits a "database is locked" error unfortunately. If you can use something else other than sqlite3 such as another SQL database like postgresql, then great!

I just want a backend which can handle one user. What’s wrong with you YT! 😂
nice
But does Google allow it as an alternative to firebase?
Supabase is the best
How is it compared to Firebase?
This is open source alternative. You can tell a lot of inspiration was taken but this is a great alternative! ALso check out supabase :)

Pocketbase it's still in beta , no production
It supports making an Api? Or it does ssr websites?
SQLite database to make a powerful backend capable of handling multiple users. What in the world did I listen to?
Yoooo I was thinking the same thing.
Two is technically “multiple users”
Is there something similar for python?
I honestly didnt understand anything about it...please if you could find time..could you go through it?
is this same with firebase?
Really should of thought about script before you filmed this lol... 😂😂😂
double thumbs up 👍👍

You don't even need to dockerize it with how portable and easy to deploy it is, honestly.
this is more like for prototyping rather than building production-ready project
So what will be a similar thing for production?
@@danyala.1659Django is a web server framework. PocketBase is a database.
You can absolutely deploy this to production.
Unless you actually expect to suddenly have 2 million daily users... This framework can handle 99% of anyones small to mid sized project.

You don't need anything more than Firebase,
@@rohanmanchanda5250 firebase costs money and isn't self-hostable

I can spin up a fully functional BE with authentically & apis in 30 mins, that can handle a few millions of concurrent DB write in just Django
Nothing beats Java and C#
In Back-End development
but it uses sqlite3, so good luck scaling it. like, what if you want multiple backends accessing the same db? with sqlite3 you cant just do that.
nah, fuck that, just open an smb server to the open internet and store everything in a plain text file.
Is it light weight? When app uploaded on google store, is it requiring more memory?
I prefer building my own backend. Is cheaper
What's going on with these BaaS.
Why all their name ending with "base"
I love how many of "developers" made their assumptions about Sqlite when they not even tried to look at the website and docs of this software.

Did I just get advertised at? Blocked.
handling multiple users is easy, i wanna know how many
But can we deploy in sqlite3?
Pocketbase not meant to be in production atm. Its so early. Dont use it in production.
Appwrite would be another alternativ
But django does all of this aswell and you can use Python which IMHO is way easier to use than go
SQLite3 isn’t scalable 💀
Anything built ready made is never truly ready made. You’re better creating everything from scratch.

SO its just django for django

So it's an sqlite wrapper?
