My brother and I have just launched our scalable cloud graph database SurrealDB ποΈ in public open beta. Weβve been building it and building apps on top of it for 7 years now. Just the two of us at the moment!
This is our new siteπ
surrealdb.com
We welcome any feedback! Many thanks in advance! π
Seven years is a long time. Your landing page is very clear to me and I like the design. I like that SurrealDB is an OpenSource product on GitHub, you definitely have a star from me. Wish you guys success with your product!
Amazing @piotrh - thanks so much for you feedback! Be sure to join the community https://surrealdb.com/community π
Thank you very much for the feedback @piotrh! π And thank you too for the star. Really appreciate it. Seven years is indeed a long time! But is has allowed for the database to be tested in production, with 5 yearsβ prototyping and development, and with one app surpassing 75 million query transactions per month. π
First of all, you website aka landing page is really dope π₯.
And you guys are doing really amazing and cool stuff, keep it up ππ»ππ»
I also wanna build something like this, someday π€©
Awesome words - thank you so much @thesunnymishra π!
Thank you very much @thesunnymishra! Fantastic feedback! I wish you all the very best for your future project too!
Okay, so generally when I see this, does it look like a cutting-edge, trendy new thing? Yes, yes it does. That seems pretty nailed with the general design vibe.
Some of the copy could be more concise - like "As a multi-model databaseβ¦" seems to go into maybe too much detail about things that could be expressed more effectively as a bulleted list (β’ nested fields & arrays β’ inter-document links β’ evolve your database design easily)
It's very long, overall, a ton of content, and that sort of buries the content about just "npm add it", which I think is a huge selling point, having all those client libraries good to go.
But anyway, overall - π great job with this!
Thank you @tmcw for the great feedback! We'll try and make the homepage a little more succinct!
And thank you also for the kind words!
Thank you very much for the feedback @tmcw! Very helpful indeed. We will indeed make the copy more concise.
