πŸ‘οΈπŸ‘ŽοΈ Landing page feedback for our new cloud graph database

My brother and I have just launched our scalable cloud graph database SurrealDB πŸ‘ˆοΈ in public open beta. We’ve 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 siteπŸ‘‡
surrealdb.com

We welcome any feedback! Many thanks in advance! 😊

    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!

      Thank you very much for the feedback @piotrh! πŸ˜€ 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 years’ prototyping and development, and with one app surpassing 75 million query transactions per month. πŸ‘

    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 database…" 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 - πŸš€ great job with this!
