Release notes, engineering deep dives, and ecosystem updates.

The blog is just getting started. In the meantime:

Latest

• Why StreetJS has three runtime dependencies — how a full backend ships on Node core with three deps, and why that matters for security and cost.
• Talking to PostgreSQL without the pg package — the wire-protocol v3 + SCRAM-SHA-256 native driver, and why it exists.
• Self-hosting a full backend on one small VPS — the cost case for in-process auth/realtime/jobs, with measured numbers.

Planned topics (contributions welcome — see Community):

1. Why StreetJS has so few dependencies — the case for a native-driver, fully integrated core.
2. Self-hosting a full backend for under $10/month — based on the budget guide.
3. Signing the plugin ecosystem — Ed25519 manifests, provenance, and the trust model.
4. From SQLite to PostgreSQL without rewrites — the shared repository pattern.
