Nhost CEO here. Hasura GraphQL Engine is one of the open source tools we're using for the Nhost stack. But it's "only" one of the open source technologies we're using. Others are: - Postgres. Who doesn't love Postgres? - Hasura Auth: https://github.com/nhost/hasura-auth https://github.com/nhost/hasura-auth - Hasura Storage: http://github.com/nhost/hasura-storage http://github.com/nhost/hasura-storage - Serverless Functions (Node.js) On top of that we have SKDs in JS/TS/React/Next.js/Vue. And a CLI for local development and a GitHub integration so you can deploy your backend just like you deploy your frontend with Netlify and Vercel. Hope that clarifies a bit.

why would i use this instead of just paying Hasura? in other words: what’s your moat?

  Just paying Hasura gets you just Hasura (at least before Neon it used to) NHost gets you Hasura, the underlying postgres db, pre-configured auth with JWTs, blob storage, functions and a client-side library to get all of that working together with nearly zero configuration. edit: also, Hasura's cheapest offering ($100 / month) is still prohibitively expensive for indie projects (That's just Hasura - you would have to add database costs, auth costs and blob storage costs to that $100).

    Just to add to the comment: you also have backups, automatic logs on all services, raw access to postgres (you can do whatever you want with it), custom integration with stripe, plus specific dashboard for users, database, and storage. It's freaking crazy

Can you tell who develops Hasura Auth and Hasura Storage? You? Or did you fork it and extend it?
- AccountAccount1 4y ago
  Both developed in-house from Nhost' engineers and OSS https://github.com/nhost/hasura-storage https://github.com/nhost/hasura-storage https://github.com/nhost/hasura-auth https://github.com/nhost/hasura-auth built to leverage Hasura's features and driven by users needs

  Both are built by us, yes. Hasura Auth has 1M+ pulls on Docker Hub and we have JS SDKs for both Auth and Storage.
