Finally, I had some time to dive into Moralis. I've wanted to play with it for some time, and lately, I built something simple and tested it. So what is Moralis? They describe this project as a set of tools and services which helps to build serverless, decentralized apps. Worth mentioning is that the face of Moralis is a well-known YouTuber Ivan on Tech.

Moralis is a service that aggregates many different tools and APIs and works as a glue for them all. All that is needed when developing a decentralized app that requires access to the blockchain, like Ethereum or Binance Smart Chain. So, what will we find there? First of all, it isn't just about blockchain. You'll get full-featured user management, standard authentication using password and email, and crypto authentication using Metamask. You'll also find data management tools, storage in the cloud, and file storage, including IPFS support with pinning services. Besides that, you'll get similar functionality to web3.js and even static site hosting. So there is a lot. I would also like to write about some of the small red flags, in my opinion, but first, let's go through what I've tested and what is great.

Before we start digging into Moralis, let's see what I have in the repository. I built a simple, a little bit messy website with only one JavaScript file, one HTML, and one CSS. Without any additional libraries etc. To see how much functionality I'll be able to get with such little code.
