HolisticBook remains a lightweight, self-hosted booking platform tailored for holistic psychologists, prioritizing data ownership, privacy, and a serene user experience. This iteration refines the technical foundation to leverage Cloudflare D1 (edge SQL database) for all persistent data storage and Hono running on Cloudflare Workers for all API/database operations.
Key updates:
- Core database operations (availability, bookings, forms, client data) handled via D1 bindings in Hono routes.
- MVP focuses on simple, secure auth (e.g., magic links or basic JWT) to enable practitioner dashboard access.
- Post-MVP: Integrate Firebase Authentication for advanced features like social logins, email/password, and robust session management.
- Benefits: Global edge performance, low latency, scalable serverless architecture, and cost-effective (free tier sufficient for solo practices).
