I want to build a hacker news clone app using flutter to familiarize myself with backend frameworks. I know Google's firebase is a viable option, and hacker news database can be accessed through API call, but I am more interested in self hosted solution. While exploring for possible options, I found strapi and Parse. Which one is more suitable for this project? Which are the differences that I need to consider while choosing the right backend framework for a project?

Please point me to the right direction. Thanks in advance. :)
