Must-know resources for beginners

I’ve started working with FaunaDB a week ago. I’ve compiled a relatively small list of the things I “bookmarked” to quickly find them again.

Don’t hesitate to add your own set of resources that have helped you!

I’m working on GitHub - Vadorequest/poc-nextjs-reaflow: (POC) Realtime Workflow Editor, using Next.js, Reaflow and FaunaDB and my experiments are available there.

Once I resolve all my priviledge problems, I think I’ll write a post on how they work that is more helpful to the beginner, and I’ll post it here. That is a big resitance area for me.

Great post Ambroise! The docs are a great start, but seeing comprehensive examples that pull multiple concepts together is essential to understanding how to implement a production-ready app.

This list does a great job of aggregating this concepts; have you thought about putting this list on GitHub so that it gets even broader exposure? This seems to be a good pattern to drive adoption and search result visibility.

Here’s an example of someone doing the same thing for Vue.js (not my work, btw): GitHub - vuejs/awesome-vue: 🎉 A curated list of awesome things related to Vue.js

I kinda listed them all in the Inspiration section of the Real-World App I’ve been working on:


Or actually, not all of them, only the most relevant.
