I Like the UI, it is time for dev tools to start looking like they're used by adults instead of typically looking like the video game screen of a teenager.

As a developer of web dev tools (crudzilla.com), I am biased towards tools built in the browser though. You probably get better performance natively but I think you make up for that with all the other things the browser offers, especially for web development. my 2 cent :)

I've been waiting for a service like this! I was just thinking about this yesterday.

In my mind I wanted to set up a database in the cloud using MS Access (my favorite database set up tool), and then set up the queries, and have something else deal with authentication.

I feel there must be some competition. Anyone know what that might be?

I really enjoyed going through the quickstart. It doubles as a really great teaching tool for people coming from front-end and design. It made a lot of data modeling concepts stick.

There are some bugs here and there, but keep up the good work!
