ZenTube 4.0 released; Learning and deciding between LegendState, Appwrite, and Supabase.

ZenTube

Since the new release, I haven’t received any complaint email, so I think it’s working alright! Will continue to bug fix and add new features from now on as the big deal (database migration) is done. Something in my mind would be:

Adding watching timestamp
Category timer - so you can have a chart revisiting yourself as to how much time you’ve spent on each category, or even set a time limit to it.

Learning Appwrite and LegendState

Deciding between Appwrite and Supabase basically, as I can use offline-first sync enabled LegendState. I only found out about LegendState not long ago, it’s interesting and suits my need. But the documentation is not the best, especially for Appwrite. I’m trying to make it work with Appwrite using their CRUD plugin but without success so far.

Flutter vs React Native (Expo)

A decade old debate, still haunts me for each project I’m about to start. Flutter is easy but there’s no offline support for anything other than Firebase/Realm afaik. So, I’ve been trying to make LegendStates works as I can self-host Supabase or Appwrite, but it has to be React Native…

I might need to make a detailed versus table to help me choose.
