Overview
PocketBase is an open-source backend written in Go that ships as a single executable. It includes an embedded SQLite database with realtime subscriptions, user and file management, and an admin dashboard.
What it does well
PocketBase gives you a database, authentication, file storage and a dashboard by running one file. Official SDKs for JavaScript and Dart cover web, mobile and desktop apps, and you can extend it with JavaScript or use it as a Go library to add your own logic while keeping a single portable executable.
Why it’s in the collection
PocketBase is the fastest way to get a real backend for a side project or small app, with nothing to configure and nothing to pay for. It is MIT-licensed.
