I’m trying to understand, and forgive me, maybe the core Retool product explains this better—how is this different from something like Capacitor/Ionic or React Native?
Is it me or does the person presenting look uncanny, almost like a 3D avatar?
I'm a prolific user of all things Retool. We are automating away our more mundane tasks with Workflows, but with Mobile we're redefining how our business is running. We have more visibility over our field sales, more control in our warehouses and ambitions to do more.

Some people have sometimes capitalization for common nouns that "seem important" or something like that (I don't know their actual reasoning). I've asked multiple times why but never got an answer.
Anyone else has problems viewing the video in landscape mode on mobile? As soon as I turn the phone, the video exits fullscreen mode and the part showing Ankur floats above the controls on the right side of the video player so I can't reenter fullscreen
Hi there! I'm Sean the PM at Retool Mobile team and we are working on fixing this issue ASAP. In the meantime, please try this Youtube link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnTxGTioOIA Feel free to contact me at sean@retool.com if you have any questions.
Hi! Retool on-prem user here ... is this going to be available for us too? Seems like we get everything fairly delayed which is a real bummer :/
On-prem is a real pain in terms of delivery. For a lot of customers there’s long lead times and change management processes to navigate to upgrade to a new version. There’s a wide distribution of environments and network topologies that introduce often surprising edge cases. There’s a whole lot you don’t control or don’t have visibility into. Which is almost by design and perfectly fine - it’s why the customer chose on-prem!
But… the trade off is you really want high conviction your new feature is perfect before it goes on-prem. You can just flip a feature flag to temporarily roll back some capability if you uncover an issue. It might take your customer months to negotiate with their internal stakeholders a deployment window for an upgrade.
Now obviously that’s not true of all on-prem customers. But it was true for such a large percentage of them that it was more pragmatic to accept it as the general case rather than have a higher velocity flow for the handful that would adopt new capabilities at a pace closer to Cloud customers.
There are quite a few low/no code solutions now, but I can’t even recall using one of these, every serious company still seems to go native.
As the founder of one of the open-source alternative [1] to Retool, I thought of doing PWA for our apps to be fit for mobile but this is next level. Congrats to the whole retool team. I legit think with your new workflows you are gonna kill the non open-source competition (Airplane, Superblocks) and now the question remains if being an open-source alternative is strong enough of a differentiation for the rest of us.…
Windmill looks pretty nice! Are there any ongoing internationalization efforts for Windmill? I live in Brazil and its pretty rare in my industry for internal (backoffice) teams to be fluent at English. I could contribute this, if I can get some directions :)
Why do these things always fail? Is it because exec suite isn’t aware they exist? There are quite a few low/no code solutions now, but I can’t even recall using one of these, every serious company still seems to go native.
They are always missing features that most devs would refuse to live without...
Language features to support high reusability / modularity, robust dev tooling for navigating the software, support for proper a sdlc, etc...
I really love the breadth of Internal Admin tools that are available today, however, I feel like none has an even minimal support to proper dev flows like dev/staging/production or a way to synchronize releases between our own Backend API and the admin pages.
