This looks awesome! Thanks for making it open source. We are currently using SQLite heavily in our stack and DuckDB has been on my list of things to explore for a while. What's been your primary use case at TigerEye? Will definitely di

The ecosystem support is improving, and still needs help. I think we can drive both in parallel so that the framework feeds use cases to the ecosystem which then lead to more complex backends. It's hard to put one before the other, but

These are reasonable concerns. Having seen the development of Flutter and its ecosystem over the past 7 years, I've come to really believe in the framework and its mission. There have been lots of companies which have found success bui

Flutter is currently required for the parent app, but I'll be lifting that requirement very soon. Stay tuned!

Ah, gotcha! The choice to use Flutter Web in the demo was just for presentational effect. Celest is built to work with all of the Flutter platforms equally.

Right now, we're using Docusaurus, which has been working well: https://github.com/celest-dev/website Though, Flutter Web has come a long ways recently, especially with the WASM work that's underway [1][2]. F

Great points. My immediate plan for reducing lock-in is to provide the option to deploy into a cloud account you manage. This has the upside of making your deployed infrastructure independent of Celest and letting you use your cloud credits

Glad to hear you ran a successful deploy! Currently we just have the CLI to manage your account, although I'm working on a web-based dashboard for better accessibility. The result of a deployment is just a URL, which is automatically p

Per project, per month, yes. Felt like a mouthful to write, but I'll make that more clear. Celest's biggest strength with cloud functions is its integration with the Dart language. The CLI generates a strongly-typed API client for

Thanks! I started working on it in November, but most of the effort has been over the past three months.

Interesting! I don't know much about using Closure and Dart together. Any projects you could point me to? Sounds like a cool use case.

by dillonnys 2y ago
Yes, I definitely want to at some point. In the short term, I've implemented a `celest upgrade` method in the CLI, so it's just a one-time manual install.
20.
by dillonnys 2y ago
Yes, absolutely. The main differences are 1. Celest is fully managed and does not require any knowledge of the cloud. With Serverpod, you must have a cloud account and manage your own infrastructure. 2. In Celest, all of your backend and in
