Overview

What is Giyan?

Giyan runs a complete, separate backend for each project: a PostgreSQL database, auth, a REST API, realtime and file storage.

All of it works with the official Supabase client libraries, so there is nothing new to learn. We run the servers; you build your app.

Hosting

Why inside Iran?

Data stays near your users
The servers are in a Tehran data centre. Your app's data stays in the country, a short path from users in Iran.
No dependence on international links
Your app does not cross the border to reach its backend, so that path does not depend on the international internet.
Fits Iranian services
SMS login and rial payments, both on the way, connect to Iranian providers rather than services that are unavailable from Iran.
