I built a micro-sass without spending a penny in a single afternoon

Hi all,

I recently discovered deta.sh and it got me thinking - what's the cheapest and easiest possible way of getting something live?

As a result, I've just created and launched GraphQL as a service. It's a simple tool that lets you build a GraphQL API with basic CRUD functionality - you can define some datatypes using a simple POST request, and that will spin up a GraphQL API which can create, read, update or destroy your data instances.

These are the tools I've used to make this:

  • Python/flask/GraphQL
  • deta.sh - provides the API functionality and the DB
  • Netlify (to host the landing page)
  • Hugo (to generate the landing page)

I've no idea if anything will come from this, but I think it goes to show that no-code tools aren't the only way of launching something quickly

Thanks for looking
Chris
