      And there even is a docker version installation. That's one app that should be considered seriously.

              @martinkbs : NocoDb is good (have it installed elsewhere) but Seatable (https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/2517/seatable-speadsheet-meets-database?_=1634306780797) is much nicer (also installed elsewhere). Seatable should be the priority IMHO.

                However, nocoDB is Open Source while Seatable is NOT. While Seatable looks great, I'd vote for priority on FOSS apps before paid apps on Cloudron imho.

                    I would vote for NocodDB too and prefer OSS projects to contribute 😉
                    NocoDB seems to be a promising project and it would be great to have it in Cloudron !

                        @bruno I have nocodb running on caprover on another vps.
                        It's nice. Not sure if better than Baserow or Seatable, but 💯 % agree on OSS

                              @timconsidine Do you know how NocoDB and SeaTable compare with Baserow which is also Open Source AFAIK?

                                @avatar1024 I haven't done a full comparison

                                I have to say I prefer SeaTable because of the richer interface and setting up different views.

                                And NocoDB is just plain annoying on its splash screen after the first time you have seen it .... but it's only a splash screen, so I had better get over it.

                                Other than that, I haven't found a lot of difference between them, but TBH that's probably because I focussed more on SeaTable so far. But OSS is important so I will likely focus on Baserow or Nocodb more next.

                                I think I would lean a little towards Baserow, but can't put my finger on why. Maybe it is NocoDB annoying eye-candy animations (we're not all children who go 'ooo' when they see glitter on the screen). Or the fact I have just found it has lost my initial user login and so the the tables I setup. Grrr. But can't blame them for that (maybe I did something wrong setting it up).

                                But Noco is still only 0.8 so maybe some caution required.

                                    @timconsidine I had to try the app myself to understand what you meant by those animations. Agreed those animations are a bit off putting! Also, if you leave the app tab open for a while, it shows a matrix animation ! There is a checkbox to disable it though - https://github.com/nocodb/nocodb/issues/171 .

                                    Seems somewhere between a toy and a serious app.

                                          You probably just don't have permission to do so yet. I assume @girish will sort you out 🙂

                                          I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner
