Instant is a modern, frontend-friendly backend / real-time database system, designed to provide reactive, multiplayer data handling with relational query syntax, offline caching, optimistic updates, and automatic rollback. It is intended to be a simpler alternative to Firebase, making front-end development more seamless by offloading backend concerns (permissions, synchronization, querying) to Instant. So we built Instant. Instant gives you a database you can use in the client, so you can focus on what’s important: building a great UX for your users, and doing it quickly.
Features
- Real-time synchronization: clients see live updates to data
- Support for relational queries in the shape of the desired data
- Offline caching and automatic reconnection handling
- Optimistic updates with rollback on failure
- Built-in permission / access control layer
- Multiplayer by default (collaborative / concurrent data)
