Platform is live

Feels great to finally have my own app platform up and running! It's tremendous freedom to run on a private server (VPS) where I can run servers and custom backends in any language I like rather than force it into the standard php / MySQL / WordPress stack. VPS:es aren't even that expensive. Cheaper than a Spotify or Netflix subscription, peanuts compared the big clouds.

So far, I only got 2 quite simple apps up as end-to-end proof-of-concept. Once all of their kinks are ironed out they'll serve as reusable templates for those to come.

My preferred stack is Svelte and Automerge for frontends; Go, Fiber, and simple databases (SQLite or PostgreSQL) for backends; and Python for batch processing; but if your app requires something else, that's fine too. Let's make it happen!

On top of that I intend to roll a few internal shared services for authorization, CRTD synchronization (enabling collaborative work à la Google Docs, based on Automerge), monitoring, etc.

Excited about what's to come!
