I built bknd because I was tired of stitching together auth, file storage, and database APIs every time I started a new project. Existing solutions were either too hard to extend, too basic, or required a separate deployment.

bknd runs directly inside your frontend app — no separate backend required. It works with Next.js, Remix, Astro, React Router. It also runs standalone on Cloudflare Workers, AWS Lambda, Bun, or Node.

It supports Postgres, LibSQL (Turso), D1, SQLite and has adapter-based storage. You get instant APIs, multi-strategy auth, media handling and a built-in Admin UI.

Curious what you’d build with it, feedback welcome!
