About:
PocketBase is a self-hosted, open-source backend server that combines a real-time database, file storage, user authentication, and an admin dashboard into a single executable file. It provides instant RESTful and real-time APIs, making it ideal for quickly building web and mobile applications without complex infrastructure. Its primary value is enabling rapid prototyping and development with minimal setup and zero external dependencies.
Key Features:
  • Single-file executable with embedded SQLite database
  • Built-in admin UI for data management
  • Real-time subscriptions for live data updates
  • File storage and serving with resumable uploads
  • User authentication and OAuth2 integration
Use Cases:
  • Rapid prototyping of web or mobile applications
  • Building internal tools and admin panels
  • Creating lightweight backends for side projects
Alternatives:
  • supabase – Cloud-based PostgreSQL backend with similar features but requires managed service
  • directus – Headless CMS with more extensive data modeling and user roles, heavier footprint
