Hello, I'm new to this and currently working on a webapp project that would interest some very little amount of people.
What would be a cheap way to host front + backend for regular account management and REST API ? I looked into firebase but adding a REST backend seemed very complicated. Thank you !
Edit: Specs are less than 1000 users a month, less than 100 concurrent users. Also I want to deliver a high number of short videos to frontend (quiz website)

the cheapest DigitalOcean Virtual machine is 6$ per month. You can the install a MEAN stack or whatever you want

if you have plan to manage users with social account or email, firebase will be the best.

I read firebase is great to host the front part of the app, but does it handle backend and DB as well ?

You can just use firestore/storage and avoid having to write a backend. If that's not sufficient, you can write and deploy functions, or use rewrites to access cloud run containers
