Hasura: a GraphQL back-end in minutes
summary
Hasura is presented as an alternative to Firebase that generates a full backend from a PostgreSQL database, exposing authentication, authorization, serverless capabilities, and a GraphQL API. The talk contrasts Firebase’s limitations (no SQL, weak queries, vendor lock-in, closed source, heavy emulators) and explains that Hasura addresses these by layering auth, permissions and serverless features on top of Postgres to let you build apps without a custom backend while keeping freedom of choice.
