About this project

Nhost provides a full-stack backend platform as an open-source alternative to Firebase, built around GraphQL and PostgreSQL. It includes authentication, file storage, serverless functions (Node.js), and a CLI for local development. Developers can choose between using the hosted Nhost platform, running locally via CLI, or self-hosting the entire stack using Docker. The platform supports integration with popular frontend frameworks including React, Vue, SvelteKit, Next.js, Nuxt.js, and React Native. Client SDKs are available for JavaScript/TypeScript and Dart/Flutter. Documentation, community support via Discord and GitHub Discussions, and contribution guidelines are provided. All core components are MIT-licensed and modular, allowing developers to customize or replace parts of the stack as needed.
