Comment on Ask HN: What are the *dynamic* needs for a static site these days?

Comments

I built a service last year that provided a SQL database over CORS, access control (user login, registration with email confirmation, and password reset via email). Security was over https and user controlled authentication tokens. The idea was to provide toolkit for building dynamic services for static sites. The archetypical use case was comments for static blogs. I built a simple forum that supported user signup, posting topics etc... as a single page app. Excercised the whole thing.

I had some interest but acquired no regular users. Email me if you'd like more info, I'll not promote it here.

I saw the link to it from your profile. Interesting concept. There are variations of this available: https://fieldbook.com/, Airtable, etc. I'll send you an email :)
