Re:GraphQL is now available on Supabase on Tuesday March 29, 2022 @06:37PM (#30849242)
Hi all, this sounds very cool. How does pg_graphql compare to Postgraphile? https://github.com/graphile/postgraphile (besides I guess running in the DB with PLpgSQL instead of as a NodeJS server)

Did you think about integrating Postgraphile with the Supabase ecosystem or have specific limitations with it?

Thanks!

Agreed. I highly recommend the 1940 edition. There's an online version from the Internet Archive here: https://archive.org/details/howtoreadabook1940edition/page/n...

This article from TIME (linked at the bottom of their website) has a good description of the problems in the insulin market and the goals of the project/foundation: https://time.com/5709241/open-insulin-project/
I've seen many comments here along the lines of "but when should Kafka be used?"

If you want a deep dive into event streaming systems (logs) that also gives some examples of big data systems they interact with, I highly recommend "The Log: What every software engineer should know about real-time data's unifying abstraction," from LinkedIn, the creators of Kafka.

Their engineering blog also has many other interesting articles on their data systems.

Would you two be able to share some take-aways from that conversation at some point? Maybe write up a short comparison of the projects as they are now and any differences in roadmap/vision that could be relevant.

I always appreciate when OSS projects put in effort to understand and position themselves in relation to competitors (or potential collaborators).

Also want to mention some open-source React visual drag and drop page editors that might be useful for inspiration or to eliminate possible duplicate work. There's OpenChakra [0] and Blocks [1], which are apps, and then there's craft.js, a library that aims to modularize "the building blocks of a page editor" and seems to have more emphasis on customizing the actual editor UI.

Best of luck to you both!
