Golang Server
Open source backend with embedded SQLite database, realtime subscriptions, admin UI, and REST API in a single executable.
What is Golang Server?
PocketBase is an open-source backend written in Go that provides a complete backend solution including an embedded SQLite database with realtime subscriptions, built-in user and file management, an admin dashboard UI, and a REST-ish API. It solves the problem of setting up complex backend infrastructure by offering everything in a single executable file that can be run on multiple platforms.
Developers and small teams building web or mobile applications who need a simple, self-hosted backend with database, authentication, and file storage without managing separate services.
Developers choose PocketBase because it dramatically reduces backend complexity—offering a production-ready backend in one portable executable, with realtime capabilities and an admin UI out of the box, while remaining extensible through Go and JavaScript.
