Budibase: an open source, no code platform

https://github.com/Budibase/budibaseAnother no-code/low-code site/app builder like GrapesJS (which I admire) except this solution has additional features I have yet to see in any other open source app builder mainly being: Automation or Workflows...I have been keeping an eye on Budibase for some time and they have eventually gone from alpha to private beta to public beta to soon officially launching!
At the moment there appears to be a lack of SSO/SAML and they do currently plan on charging for that feature (@ $6 a user a month) not bad but not ideal.. The rest of the app is open source/self hostable & is still VERY promising =]
- DATA: Add and manage your data with ease
- DESIGN: Build with pixel-perfect blocks
- AUTOMATE: Automate manual processes

@plusone-nick just came across this (thanks r/selfhosted!) and this looks like the real deal. Haven't used it yet, but they claim to not only have WYSIWYG web site building, but also hook into Databases for backend, and offer a sort of Zapier-like automation platform.
-
I just did a quick run through of this and was able to deploy a full app to their server in a few minutes. Everything about this feels legit, from the docs, to the design ... I try out a lot of these types of products and this one feels like the thing I'm always fantasizing about in my head. Very impressed.
-
Wow, just tried this out myself and it is truly amazing. Would be awesome to have on Cloudron.
-
@thetomester13 have been waiting for this release for like a year! Really admire the query builder and the automation/logic builder along with the DB connectors =]
-
+1 This looks incredible!
-
Wouldn't this require Cloudron supporting multiple domains per app?
-
@mario with 6.1 multiple domains per app is now supported, but the app has to specify in the manifest if it is compatible with multiple domains.
-
@nebulon ah, very nice.
-
@mario - do you mean two different root domains or a root domain + a subdomain?
For BB it builds and launch's a new app in a subdomain but I imagine there is a method to use the root... Kinda like Cloudron's my. for the daskboard the BB service needs its own endpoint and then the app needs another?Still learning & messing around with it =]

Just becoming aware of Budibase thanks to you and all on this forum topic.
Apart from the elements mentioned in the original post from @plusone-nick, Svelte, CouchDb and PouchDb get a
from me, fwiw -
@jdaviescoates I tested the hosted offering from Budibase and it really is awesome.
To encourage others with tech skills as low as mine, I have done a local install with these instructions and (excluding my own stupidity) very smooth and easy.Comment for anyone interested from the Budibase devs is that the native local desktop Builder app may be moved into the deploy/host environment. I guess this saves them maintaining local Electron builder apps.
-
FYI for those interested : Budibase has a major new version out.
Still V0.9 but many changes under the hood.
Trying to get to grips with it. -
@timconsidine It's pretty amazing but would be REALLY hard to get up into Cloudron - there's lots of moving parts and containers involved.
-
@doodlemania2 Yes, true, that has become apparent as I play on self-host version.
Going to leave my instance on self-host and don't expect budibase in Cloudron.
Lot more good apps to get packaged for Cloudron.
