I’m working on a new top-secret project and I’ve decided to consider Firebase as a platform to deploy it on.
Everything is very simple, I set up auth in less than an hour and I’m now looking into what to use as a database.
I was originally planning on hosting most of this app myself on a my linode VPS, but now I’m thinking about hosting the entire project over at Google, via Firebase.
Sadly I don’t think Firebase supports GraphQL, but rather a NoSQL database called Cloud Firestore.
Something is telling me I should just take the easy route and focus on building the app. Maybe one day I can use GraphQL but the app that I’m writing is going to be very simple and hopefully replaceable with something more scalable.
Otoh I really want to learn GraphQL 🥺…
