Appwrite
Open-source backend platform for auth, databases, storage and functions
About Appwrite
Appwrite is an open-source backend platform that gives developers the building blocks of an app backend through simple APIs and SDKs. It includes authentication with many login methods, databases, file storage, serverless functions, messaging, realtime subscriptions and hosting, available as a managed cloud service or self-hosted with Docker. Because the code is open source under a permissive license, teams can avoid vendor lock-in and even run it entirely on their own infrastructure. It is aimed at developers and startups that want Firebase-style speed with open-source control. The cloud free plan covers starter projects; self-hosting is free without usage limits.
