Earlier quoted context omitted.

Will also throw in react-admin there. React-admin is not the same space per se (it's basically a react framework, not a low/no code tool), but if I built an internal admin app in react-admin, what would you say the pros/cons are to moving to Refine?

React-admin lead dev here. Short story: Refine and react-admin were in the same low-code space (targeting developers) until today, but it seems they've pivoted to no-code (targeting non developers) as they go after ReTool. Long story: https://marmelab.com/blog/2023/07/04/react-admin-vs-refine.h...

That article is top 5% of biased articles I've read in my life. Really bad look to be honest, would have really liked a more objective comparison

Post an article biased the other direction to set a counter-balance.

Just for clarity: the author of this comment is not from our team. But if you ask for my opinion, I enjoyed reading the article. We always pursue ideas that will take 'refine' to the next level, and this piece was helpful to us.
