Is it just me or is this category of product exploding right now? Here, a list of similar tools that let you easily make a data model and generate some descent UI from it ? https://budibase.com/ https://baserow.io/ https://directus.io/ https://strapi.io/ https://nocodb.com/ https://keystonejs.com/ https://saltcorn.com/ https://www.plasmic.app/ https://www.appsmith.com/ https://www.jigdev.com/ https://www.sanity.io/ h…
I am looking for a low-code system where I could easily add code for custom business logic (on the backend) when needed. Most of these systems seem well-suited to reading data, but don't seem suitable to writing it for non-trivial use cases. pocketbase.io has some hooks for when data is saved, but currently only supports SQLite as a backend. Directus seems to have some custom validation ability. All these systems don…

There's also https://github.com/illacloud/illa-builder . Only Retool alternative I have found so far that's not AGPL encumbered or open core.
What's wrong with AGPL? It's copyleft, that's intentional so it can't really be considered a flaw. Are there other issues?
What shocked me the most is that this APITable has rich features and high quality product interface at such an early stage.
I guess there's a professional team behind them.

You can't deployed the apps generated in any useful business capacity so it is not truly free except for a minority of personal users (or if you are in a country where IP rights are not easily enforced). These platforms' primary customers and audience are enterprises and companies. The open source part is a red herring. It is not "free" to use in any sense for most organizations unless you are a non-profit with a maj…
I see some serious red flags on their homepage: * "Partners" just seem to be logo-hijacking potential hosting platforms (not actual partnerships) * Most of the links in the footer don't work * The testimonials use fake names + stock art * API keys checked into a public repo * Seems to be built by (or somehow associated with) this company (h https://pitchbook.com/profiles/company/312911-47 ), but with no links back Pl…
Did anyone get the "Gitpod Online Demo" to work?
https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/apitable/apitable
Takes well over 2 minutes to start up and then asks for a username/password which is written under installation: admin@apitable.com / Apitable2022
As far as I can see it is a somewhat buggy but interesting and comprehensive product. Instead of relying on Gitpod for demo, I would buy some dedicated, faster hosting and make a demo that didn't require a login.

This is great but I have trouble running it, so I just opened a couple PRs and bug reports. Thanks for releasing this!

AGPL makes something free as in "non-encumberable", it doesn't leave you free to do more or less whatever you want with it like the MIT or BSD licenses.
