#272I am building a Covid19 dashboard and looking for some UI that can pull data from my django backend. Tried working with HTML templates but designing is not my ball game.
So basically there are APIs that provide various data points related to countries and other stats. I need a front-end that could consume the APIs and render data in form of tables, charts and cards.
What are my options here that can set me up and running quickly?

#274I've tried Pipedream https://pipedream.com and it works great. I have two or three Twitter bots posting kanjis and random stuff per day. It's very easy to build a kind of flow with inputs/outputs and connect to the most popular APIs

#278Dialog-based development could be a compelling future. Projects like Storyscript (see demo here https://twitter.com/storyscripthq - it gets crazier) and Iris (for data science) are conversations with computers; changing the interface interaction to more "human" than anything else out there. Think Alexa, but for business QA, RPA and workflow/automation development. Image taking data from any source, asking complex que…
yes! i spoke to a storyscript guy and damn this looks awesome

#279Odoo https://www.odoo.com for list/form CRUD apps. Includes many ERP plugins but is a nice platform for your own apps. Fast client with powerful search tool. Just Python and XML declarative UI gets you working sites. FOS for local hosting and they do SAAS as their main ERP business.
Can you 'click together' CRUD apps with them though? Or you need to write XML? I did not check them for quite a while because everything that could've been 'no/lowcode drag & drop' was quite painful before.
I haven't tried their graphical builders, so I would definitely classify Odoo as "low code" not "no code". The Python and XML needed to produce a basic list/form type CRUD app is, IMHO, minimal when you consider the features that you get in the app (paging, filtering, sorting, grouping, spreadsheet import/export, comment thread, notification, etc.). And that's w/o considering the many plugins available that can be used together with your custom modules.
BTW, egow here. Spot of trouble with my password on that login name.

#280In a previous company we wanted to give more independence to our support and marketing teams. They idea is that instead of they asking us to do some trivial tasks like fetching some data from the DB or sending a request to an API, they could do that by them selves, parting from what we (the developers) build for them. The idea started from there and now includes more flexibility in terms of integrations, customizatio…
you thinking something like nocodeapi.com
