Django has great GIS integration. How does Pocketbase compare here ? Also, can Pocketbase work with PostgreSQL or is it SQLite only ?

SQLite only. I haven't come across any GIS integration. I think you should choose Pocketbase when it "not having features" and being lightweight is the feature you need.

Like Postgres has PostGIS, SQLite has Spatialite. https://www.gaia-gis.it/fossil/libspatialite/index

Unsure about integrating it with Pocketbase but I imagine it is reasonable to do.
