Case Study: Netlify delivers gamified e-learning experiences with Hasura

Netlify builds gamified Jamstack Explorers with Hasura and 2 core event-driven features

Netlify, a SaaS provider specializing in serverless functions and developer experience, needed a way to perform custom business logic at specific points in a user's journey on their gamified e-learning platform. They required an event-driven solution that could handle progress-based achievements without building heavy backend infrastructure, a challenge they addressed using Hasura.

Hasura provided a straightforward solution using its event-driven data management capabilities. Netlify used Hasura's Events to create non-blocking background behaviors and Hasura Actions to perform specific business logic beyond standard database writes. This allowed them to build their open-source Jamstack Explorers project with a gamified, educational experience.
