👋 Welcome to PocketHost

🗺️ Overview

PocketHost hosts your PocketBase projects, so you don't have to. Create a project like you would in Firebase and Supabase and let PocketHost do the rest.

PocketHost is a cloud hosting platform for PocketBase. You can use it to instantly provision a PocketBase backend for your latest project. Features include:

  • Create unlimited PocketBase projects, each with a custom subdomain
  • Each instance runs on a subdomain of pockethost.io
  • Access your PocketBase instance using the PocketBase JavaScript SDK as easily as new PocketBase('https://my-project.pockethost.io')
  • Run your instance in an ultra-beefy shared environment.

🎯 Focus on your app

Get a live PocketBase instance in 10 seconds with no backend setup:

  1. Create an account at pockethost.io
  2. Provision your first PocketBase instance
  3. Connect from anywhere
import PocketBase from 'pocketbase'

const client = new PocketBase(`https://harvest.pockethost.io`)
