cuttle VS Directus

I got started in web development by building a full stack web app to play my favorite card game, Cuttle, pvp. Now that I'm working in the industry, I've open sourced the project and I continuously improve it with the help of other contributors. Here's the live deployment and here's the code.

The app is live at https://cuttle.cards and actively in (modest) use. We are continuously improving it, and you can practice essentially any part of the full stack by contributing. Here’s the code. The app is a Vue3 SPA with a nodejs backend (using sailsjs), and a postgres database, and we use cypress for the bulk of our automated testing.

Everyone is welcome! The best way to get started is to join us on discord where you can chat with me and the other devs about setting up and picking your first issue. Otherwise feel free to grab any of the issues on our github!

For one thing, you're welcome to join our discord where you can chat with me and other contributors (players too). I'd be happy to help you find a first issue to contribute. Regardless, feel free to check out our issue list to see if there are any you'd like to take a crack at.

For what it’s worth, I’ve open sourced my project (here’s the code) so if anyone would like to practice full stack web development skills by working on the oldest known combat card game, come check it out! We have five tournaments every year and open play sessions twice a week so your contributions will be used by real people in a live environment

Here’s the code

Cuttle is my favorite card game and I learned web development by creating cuttle.cards: an open source, fullstack pvp web app where people can play Cuttle online, for free! The app uses a postgresql database, a nodejs backend and a vue3 front-end. Here's the code.

I use websockets in my card game project: cuttle.cards as the way of updating all the players when someone makes a move. Here’s the code.

It’s a full stack web app with a Vue frontend and a nodejs backend built with the sailsjs framework. Here’s the code. The project is open source and under continuous development to improve the player experience.

We don’t have the full team structure that you’d see in a professional setting, but we have 5 core engineers including myself who work consistently on the project and a number of other contributors at various levels of experience. Here’s the repo. If any of that interests you, hit me up!

Directus is an open data platform built to serve as a headless CMS, API, or Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) for other applications. It is designed to make data accessible to people of all technical levels and to make it easy to build data-centric applications. Directus is extensible and can be integrated with many different frontend technologies to create stable, well-structured development and user experiences.

As of April 2024, Directus' GitHub repository has accumulated 25.2k stars and 3.5k forks, showcasing its active community. The project has secured $8+ million in funding, further fueling its growth and development.

I don't know, it's something I've wanted many times.

Recently I discovered https://directus.io/ which comes pretty close and it's open source.

I using Directus CMS on several projects with pretty complicated flows, api extensions etc. probably there will be some work if you move. I liked Directus is because it's standard SQL I can always move my DB and documents to another solution. I don't use their hosted solution but they have an unlimited offering for $100 / month.

Have you looked at Directus? I’m not sure exactly what your needs are (sorry if I’ve misunderstood). I used it for my most recent project as the backend for data entry/queries/administration. It supports MySQL, but admins don’t need to know anything about SQL to do complex queries/filters/CSV exports from the Directus UI.
