# pockethost.io
This is the open source monorepo for pockethost.io, the hosting platform for PocketBase.
Get up and running in 30 seconds flat:
1. Create an account at pockethost.io
2. Provision your first PocketBase instance
3. Connect from anywhere
```ts
const client = new PocketBase(`https://harvest.pockethost.io`)
```
## Powered by PocketBase
[PocketBase](https://pocketbase.io) is a single-file backend written in Go and powered by SQLite. It can scale vertically and handle massive concurrency which makes it a great choice for most business applications. And because everything is open source, you can host your own instance of PocketBase on your own infrastructure.
## Why PocketHost?
PocketBase is very, very cool. But, to run and manage it successfully, you need to know a lot of backend Linux sysadmin/devops stuff:
- Probably Docker
- Email and DKIM+SPF and more
- DNS, MX, TXT, CNAME
- SSL
- Storage
- Volume mounts
- Could computing or VPS
That's where PocketHost comes in. Firebase and Supabase have made BaaS very attrictive, and PocketHost brings that same attractiveness to PocketBase.
## Roadmap
- Tighter integration with PocketBase
- Cloud functions [PBScript](https://github.com/benallfree/pbscript)
- Lightstream support
- fly.io deployment support
