Yeah it's an awesome concept! Cardi looks great too! Might be worth to see if you can port it to Space, would make it easier for non-tech people to use it!

WebCrate uses services provided by Deta (like Deta Base for the database, Deta Auth for authentication) internally and thus can't be made available to run on any server without a r…

Thanks for the feedback! I can now see why not everyone has the same understanding of "self-hosted", which is totally okay! I am not planning on providing a version of WebCrate whi…

Space (and WebCrate) are currently free! Even if they charge something for it in the future, the version of WebCrate you install today will always be free. On Deta Space updates ar…

Not out of the box no. You could fork and modify it, but that would take a lot of work. Can't recommend Deta Space enough though, it is kind of like self-hosting it without managin…
