    Hi all, I'm currently validating an idea for a new BaaS solution which will allow you to build and host a web app backend without writing a single line of code. The app is called BackendLab and the landing page is here: https://www.backendlab.app/ The idea is that it allows you to define your database models by specifying what fields to include and BackendLab automatically creates a CRUD API which you can start using straight away.

    HI Hacker News! I’m very excited to show you this project I have been working on, MarkdownSite.com. For folks who interact with the website, it is a web hosting platform where you can add your repository and have a website built from the `public/` directory. Files in `site/` with an `.md` extension are rendered from markdown to HTML, and the website is then available at a random subdomain.
