It would be nice if there was a dead-simple Firebase-like tool you could self-host. ie just a single instance that you could point all your toy apps at to give them a little real-time persistence.

Around the time that Parse (mentioned by sibling) was killed and open sourced, a lot of open source Firebase-like solutions had sprung up, some of which are listed here: https://github.com/relatedcode/ParseAlternatives#open-source...

Parse was a Firebase competitor that got bought by Facebook and later open sourced, I don’t know if it’s dead simple though.
