2024 Web Development Wish List

1. Appwrite

   1 596 48,614 9.8 TypeScript

   Build like a team of hundreds_

   

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

2. SurveyJS

   surveyjs.io featured

3. surrealdb

   2 104 29,237 9.8 Rust

   A scalable, distributed, collaborative, document-graph database, for the realtime web

   

   Get Cloud Version going!

4. Hasura

   3 234 31,537 9.9 TypeScript

   Blazing fast, instant realtime GraphQL APIs on all your data with fine grained access control, also trigger webhooks on database events.

   

   Nested Mutation - 113 thumbs up, and still open since 2019... another case of not listening to the users?

5. Prisma

   4 482 42,220 9.9 TypeScript

   Next-generation ORM for Node.js & TypeScript | PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, SQLite, MongoDB and CockroachDB

   

   Web Sockets / Real Time built in. Again, 409 up votes on Github, and they offer 3rd party support. Version 1 had this. Edge Functions DO support web sockets. Let's get this done!

6. postgrest

   5 112 25,273 9.5 Haskell

   REST API for any Postgres database

   

   Despite what most people think, postgREST is incredibly powerful. I know, I am a sponsor. I specifically am trying to get nested mutation built-in. Currently, queries are probably more powerful than Hasura or Prisma, but most people don't know this.

7. node-canvas

   6 23 10,450 7.5 JavaScript

   Node canvas is a Cairo backed Canvas implementation for NodeJS.

   

   Assuming SWR (stale while revalidate) is working, we could definitely use the ability to edit images in workers. We would need support for node canvas or something similar.

8. analog

   7 15 2,823 9.8 TypeScript

   The fullstack meta-framework for Angular. Powered by Vite and Nitro

   

   Umm, ng templates look awesome! Let's get it working like a charm!

9. InfluxDB
