Today I tried #appwrite to detach from #firebase but I noticed that it was bad choice.
Appwrite comes with traefik so you need 2 ports dedicated to it even if you have already a proxy like #caddy installed.
By default the cloud functions are only executable if you set a specific header. The other solution is to configure a domain dedicated for the functions and change the name servers to appwrite.io own DNS servers.
Note to self: use Appwrite only if I have a server and a domain exclusively for it.
