dropbox-sdk-python VS Appwrite

The creation of the dropbox-sdk-python repo was almost certainly overseen by Guido van Rossum since he was working at Dropbox at the time. There is a note in the Smartsheet SDK repo that parts of it were developed by Dropbox as well.

Or do you or should I just use this 'dropbox-sdk-python' (https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-sdk-python)?

I'm not drawing conclusions from this, but I did some poking around..

I ran `git clone` on the repos of both rsync[0] and the official Dropbox SDK for Python[1]. I then ran sloccount on both of them.

rsync came in at a total of 51,410 physical source lines of code.

The Dropbox SDK came in at a total of 74,140 physical source lines of code.

In this example, we will demonstrate how we can integrate with a third-party storage provider like Dropbox to create backups of files uploaded to Appwrite. For the sake of this example, we will be using Dropbox’s Python SDK. A similar concept applies to other API providers like Box or Google Drive. So let’s get started.

If you haven't tried Appwrite, make sure you give it a spin. It's a open source backend that packs authentication, databases, storage, serverless functions, and all kinds of utilities in a neat API. Appwrite can be self-hosted, or you can use Appwrite Cloud starting with a generous free plan.

What is Appwrite? Appwrite is an open-source backend server that abstracts the complexity of backend development, allowing developers to focus on building their applications. It provides a wide range of services including databases, storage, functions, and authentication, all designed to work seamlessly together. This integration simplifies the development process, reducing the need for extensive configuration and integration work.

Appwrite is an open source BaaS platform that provides services like serverless functions, serverless databases, user authentication, and messaging. Since its release, it has quickly become a popular choice for building websites and applications.

Today, this ecosystem is going strong with new providers like Hasura, AppWrite and Supabase powering millions of projects. There are a few reasons people choose this style of hosting, especially if they are more comfortable with frontend development. BaaS lets them set up a database in a secure way, expose some business logic on top of the data, and connect via a dev-friendly SDK from their app or website code to save data easily. These modern tools build a blend of managed database with curated plugins such as authentication, great admin dashboards, and function as a service type capability - all in one package, and often offered as a integrated hosted service.

Joins - see Future of Queries - MariaDB supports json joins, so definitely possible!

Wow, looks nice! I almost felt like I could understand Bitcoins code xD

Could you do Appwrite? https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite

I'm not affiliated to them, just wanted to get started hacking it.
