# Overview
|
|
|
|
Starting a new project on PocketHost is as effortless as creating a project on Firebase or Supabase. Simply choose a custom subdomain and each PocketBase instance is instantly provisioned and managed on `pockethost.io`. Our cloud-hosted environment is built with speed and scalability in mind, and you can access your PocketBase instance using the PocketBase JavaScript SDK. It's as simple as `new PocketBase('https://my-project.pockethost.io')`.
|
|
|
|
We know that many web and nodejs programmers choose SvelteKit, React, Vercel, Firebase, and Supabase for their ease of use. That's why we've mirrored that simplicity with PocketHost. Set up a live PocketBase instance with no backend setup. Once you've created an account at pockethost.io, you can provision your first PocketBase instance and connect from anywhere.
|
|
|
|
With PocketHost, you can forget about the time-consuming tasks of managing Linux/devops. We handle everything from email and DNS management to SSL certification, CDN hosting, and much more. This lets us give you more time to focus on what's really important: building your app and making an impact with your creation.
