Developer Tools comparison
Two of the best developer tools tools, compared side-by-side. Here’s how each one stacks up.
CDN, DNS, security, and edge compute.
🎯 Why it’s useful
The free tier handles obscene amounts of traffic. R2 has zero egress fees, which can save thousands at scale.
💜 Why we like it
Workers + KV is the cleanest edge-compute model out there. We use it for image proxies and link redirectors.
The open-source Firebase alternative.
🎯 Why it’s useful
Generous free tier. You can ship an MVP with auth + DB + file storage without writing a backend.
💜 Why we like it
It's real Postgres. When you outgrow the SaaS, you can lift-and-shift to your own infra.
