I'd like to plug PocketBase [0] for a similar use case.

Last week I was looking for a place to store random data with API access, and was looking at making a Google Sheets backend, but PocketBase was easy and didn't have a 60 rpm quota [1].

Deploying to a cheap VPS was very easy with CapRover.

[1] https://developers.google.com/sheets/api/limits




one vouch for pocketbase, I use pocketbase as general collecting data and export it to csv via api and transfer it to google sheet for viewing,edit etc

super easy for prototyping and getting the job done, while google sheet as a backend is nice too but I need authentication etc etc


I was looking at pocketbase but I didn't really understand how to use it. I know sqlite and am good at SQL, but couldn't work out how to use it.


You need to query/write using HTTPS requests


I loved your product!!

My infrastructure is 100% focused in scale so I think we can work together, we just need to share the costs.

Please send me a message here https://www.zerosheets.com/contact so I can get your contact.
