Hey folks, if you take a look here: https://appwrite.io/docs/quick-starts/astro
Nobody has written any docs yet for how to use Appwrite's backend and database services with Astro. Can someone help out by contributing to the Appwrite docs if possible?

Start with Astro - Docs - Appwrite

Learn how to use Appwrite to add authentication, user management, file storage, and more to your Astro apps.

Yes, please do. I'm looking to use Astro and React for my frontend, and Appwrite for my backend and database stuff. Appwrite uses Redis as its database.

#

I'm doing this for a startup SaaS website/app which has the potential to be scaled upward to enterprise-level in the future

#

In fact, Appwrite is listed as the very first backend service Astro can be used with over in this site: https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/backend/
So having Appwrite have no docs for Astro would be pretty annoying

Sounds good, so the question is, how would I use Appwrite in the grand scheme of things? Can Appwrite be my backend and database, or just my database? I am using Golang for my backend currently, would I just use my Golang backend to link to an Appwrite endpoint? Sorry I'm a little bit new to backend stuff
