Built a developer-friendly BaaS around PostgreSQL + PostGIS. Instant APIs, real-time updates, self-hostable Docker image. Feedback welcome

So my very first question, after opening your page, is “what does this get me, if anything, to offset the very large decrease in efficiency vs. the native wireline protocol, given that it’s implemented pretty much everywhere?”

Feels like they're trying to make something alike PostgREST (and sell it as a service), ie being able to skip backend coding and this manages brokering and permissions for frontends that does most of the job anyhow.

It enables you to use Postgres without the wireline protocol
