Incredible experience with a flexible open-source BaaS. Especially when it comes to identity and access management - historically a headache with AWS, etc. - Appwrite makes it easy! Their rate of growth is also tremendous - powered by a passionate community and an excellent leadership team, they've already overtaken competitors with years' development ahead of them, all before the first funding round! The managed service rounds things out - next steps could be introduction of Bun for JS (already seen leadership exploring this idea in the Discord) and more granular control over storage, but it's still extremely early days. Cannot wait for the cloud service - already primed as a customer!

Excellent tool for developing the back-end of a Flutter app. Appwrite was also easier to deploy on my own VPS than other tools like it.

Appwrite got my attention since the #30DaysofAppwrite campaign was started. What a solid tool for Backend, web, and mobile so far!

Very easy to self-host on DigitalOcean, and deploying cloud functions has like zero overhead. Using it as a backend for static sites with contact forms. Pretty nice because I can add custom server-side validation without needing a traditional web server. It's like microservices for people who don't care about docker and k8s.

Loving it. I've been a web developer for 20+ years and I've never gotten from 0 lines to actual useful coding so fast. 100% recommend.
