I'm building an open-source platform for your database, API, auth and apps

I'm Duc. Since May 2025 I've been building Excalibase on nights and weekends, next to my day job. It started as a GraphQL engine for Postgres, because I like SQL.

  • Future plans involve static frontends on Cloudflare and AI agent workflows.
