How to combine multiple backend projects that have different tech stack
Hello fellow developers o/ I have an interesting situation. I have a nextjs website that requires 2 external backing projects to fulfil its functionality needs. The backend projects are written in express and springboot respectively. I wanted to combine the backend projects somehow (like "route1" is express and "route2" is springboot api's) so that i don't need to host the projects at different places. Is there a way to achieve that? I'll be using bevel to deploy the website if that's relevant in any way, sorry pretty new to backend. Also pardon me for bad english, it's not my native language. Extended question: Can it be made so nextjs app and its ssr is maintained but its "api" route call the combined backend projects api. Thanks in advance for your valuable suggestions 😄

Any good `Prisma` alternative for other languages?
Are there any good Prisma alternatives for rust, go, kotlin and java backends? I really like how Prisma generates raw sql code instead of language code, and Prisma Studio for ui to interact with DB. I'd like to use those features in my backend which is not in js/ts and use rust(or any language I mentioned above). (I'm not looking for a single solution for every language, it's good if there is one, but it's fine if every language has a different ORM that's on par with Prisma.) Thank you 🙂

Any free-tier solutions for heavy read-write personal projects?
Greetings readers, I need some wisdom from all of your experienced and enthusiastic devs on one web project I want to make as a hobby and for personal use. [Note: - I am not a web developer, also I don't know much about the backend but I'll learn that through this project. - I am not looking for advice related to how I should implement the project code-wise, as I want to figure out that fun part myself. ] Some context: - I want to create a web app for reading books and research papers that are present as pdfs on my GitHub repo. - I want to create the web app in a way that can maintain all the user history, like last page user left reading and the pages that user has read(in case user jumps to some arbitrary page of the file) - I want the above info to be recorded even if the site is closed or the browser is closed(I assume I need to write at every page visit) - I want to maintain tags to group the files as well. - Allow users to add their books and other docs. Basically, I want to create a library app on the web and maintain the data for now. Now the thing is, I don't want to invest money in this and don't want to pay for deployment and hosting costs and DB maintaining costs. Are there any reasonable solutions in the market that have some free tiers good enough to let me achieve this? I am planning to only use the project myself or share it with <10-20 friends. Please let me know if you folks are aware of some good solutions for this, thank you 🙂 (Also recommendations of some good tech-stack are also welcome as I am doing this purely for learning purpose)
