Ask HN: What's the quickest way to create back end server for games I'd be interested in a backend service that does auth, store inventory of purchased in-game assets, etc. Something simple that's easy and fast to standup. |

Firebase is usually the default. It's not as simple as it looks and can be a little costly, but it's well supported.
If it's just CRUD, Parse Server is much faster to set up and cheaper. It's was open sourced by FB and suddenly everyone lost interest as it was no longer a resume item.
If you want something more customized, less simple, but with a little latency, serverless stuff is fine.
