The demo works like a charm, not bad!
Stephanie Zhang
Looks amazing! Beautiful design and so intuitive. Will definitely be trying this out with the next apps I build.

Backend development involves a lot of setup; and Napkin abstracts all of that away. Serverless is the future. (Btw i love the product video: how did you do it?)
Daniel Nisttahuz
Guilty as charged! 😉 @michelle_lim thank you so much for the kind words 🙏 and thanks Bro for the mention

What tech stack is planned for the future? Like can I write my normal Laravel code? Or how about Swift Vapor?

@linusgeffarth We want to focus on making the best possible experience for each runtime, so we are adding them one at a time for now. We're working on adding Node.js support next. Will keep Laravel and Swift in mind though! Thanks for your question!

It looks great but I can't create a username and that is preventing me from actually doing anything.

@carlo_thissen Thanks Carlo! Really happy you like it

?makers does Napkin also provide a storage/database layer?
Hutchinson
@thomaswang thanks for your answer! Also, do we have access to an underlying OS? What it for example we need to send a mail? Do we have access to the system's sendmail, or the way Napkin is conceived expects us to rely on some external transactional email service for those kind of operations? Thanks!

@thomaswang @invalidusername Access to underlying OS is very limited. The expectation is that you would use an external email service in this case. If email is a big need for you, feel free to reach out to support@napkin.io - would love to chat more details about your potential use case!
