Merebase is a new take on serverless development. Instead of having to figure out each platform's quirks and trying to compile your functions and integrate them with the rest of your deployment pipeline, Merebase handles everything right in your front-end code
Hi PH! Merebase is something that I wanted someone to make for a while. Recently, I decided to just build it on my own :) Most of the time, I'm working on some React applications and I often realize that I need a couple of secure serverless functions to run some heavy code or to access a database. For some reason, I start procrastinating around that time... 🙄 You see, building a serverless function or a Lambda isn't as easy as you'd think. There are many moving parts that you have to stitch together. You have to read the documentation of some tools or platforms just to deploy a single secure function that accesses a database. 🤯. That's unacceptable.
So, I built Merebase. It works by taking your function's code, figuring out all the imports and environment variables, deploys it, and executes it for you. It comes with various security guarantees to make sure that no one spams your account.
Before launching the whole thing to the public, I decided to start with a waiting list instead. This way, I can safely make urgent changes to the API without disturbing the users' workflow. So, make sure to join us 😊
