Cool idea. I've been trying to hack an internal dashboard for my team, is not a fancy project but is crucial for accountability. The pain is to rely on out DB or tools such as Retool to hack a simple project. I think this solves that problem. It seems to me than having a basic KV store as a service is a great thing to ease the development of simple yet important projects.
I was wondering, I hate Firebase, but why was it a pain for you?
Thanks! Well I think I just found it very time-consuming to get started and get to the point I was aiming to get (having a simple service under some domain with SSL). I'd say as they've got a bunch of different products their docs are not as straightforward to dive in. With Pandora I got this working in less than a minute :D which was pretty awesome for my use-case.
Thanks!, I'm glad you consider Coddie as a teaching tool. I'll look after Blaze and SQLAlchemy to focus my energy on the language, which is the part I enjoy the most.
Inspired by the simplicity and elegance of both the Scheme programming language, and the relational algebra formal system, Coddie is an interpreter with Lisp-like syntax that presents in a succinct way a tool to study and explore relational algebra, as defined by E.F. Codd in his famous paper A relational Model of Data for Large Shared Data Banks, but extended in order to provide lightweight manipulation of data and data presentation.
I'm not aware of Linkedin maintaining any widely-used libraries or anything like that, so probably very little. (Hadn't they already vocally moved away from Scala and onto something newer and trendier?)
