        Hi Joe;
        I'm very pleased to see you in the Cloudron community;
        for me BudiBase is a serious challenger, and even better, to Notion and ClickUp.
        I can't wait to host it on my Cloudron.

          Can I use this app to build a one-page html "responsive" site? If not, what would you recommend?

          Currently, using Wordpress but it's an overkill for a static page.

            Personally I think Budibase would be overkill for that.
            I would look at Ghost or Grav if you want an interface to building and posting content.
            Or just a Surfer or LAMP app with a free HTML template (thousands available, but look at https://html5up.net or https://pixelarity.com/) if you're ok with coding a page

              @timconsidine I'm using Ghost for my personal blog but haven't figured out how to build a static page without knowing how to code.

              Ideally, I'm looking for a page builder (think Elementor, WP Bakery, etc.) that I can use to build a static html page then save the project so I can easily modify things in the future. It looks like Grav fits the bill. Thanks for the recommendation!

                @humptydumpty if your target page is going to be fairly static (not regular content changes), you could look at https://grapesjs.com which allows you to 'scaffold' out a page with drag'n'drop components.
                Then copy/paste the built page (use the View Code button to download an HTML file and a CSS file) into something like Surfer (here on Cloudron) or a LAMP instance.

                      What happened to this? Was someone here packaging it? Something we can help with?

                      I can see it, at a minimum, being a useful tool for creating web forms.

                          @marcusquinn it's not good for forms to be completed by the public/unregistered users, as I understand it.
                          It's a good system, but it's aimed at a "portal" type deployment, users to be registered by admin or invited by email.

                            UPDATE : I may be out of date
                            There is still a user model based on registered users in your community/enterprise/portal.
                            But I just read there is support for public screens now (may have missed it)
                            Apologies if I misled anyone

                            But it is complex to install as a Cloudron app.
                            I installed mine using their scripts on a VPS for docker installations.

                              @marcusquinn thanks for pointing this out!
                              It feels like a different set of product, quite interesting, but doesn’t seem to updates too often…

                                not impossible to containerize it, but almost impossible to do it for cloudron.
                                It needs to be installed with docker-compose because it uses multiple docker containers to run:

                                • CouchDB (the only primary DB supported)
                                • Minio
                                • Main Container
                                • Worker (execute most of the process)
                                • Proxy
                                • watchtower (this is not needed in a Cloudron install)

                                  Another example of it being useful to have Cloudron LDAP able to server others apps as well then.

                                    I see Budibase as an alternative to Notion (and so ClickUp and Asana) and while it is possible to build a blog/website with Notion, I also agreed with @timconsidine, none of these solutions are the best for that kind of task unless you want to learn through the process. The main reason is these apps would act as a database for your one page (like MySQL for WordPress).

                                    Usually a database in a website is to generate dynamically page and content
                                    So if your goal is to have a one-page website, well that is like building a complete office tower only to use one office.

                                    For a quick and fast one-page, I often use Hugo with WowChemy.

The main reason is these apps would act as a database for your one page (like MySQL for WordPress).

                                      Usually a database in a website is to generate dynamically page and content
                                      So if your goal is to have a one-page website, well that is like building a complete office tower only to use one office.

                                      For a quick and fast one-page, I often use Hugo with WowChemy.

                                        I was wondering if the Cloudron community would be interested in a Budibase add-on?

                                        For viewers who don't know, Budibase is an open-source low code platform for building internal tools. You can connect your SQL database and generate responsive CRUD apps in a couple of clicks. You can find out more info on the Budibase Github repo.

                                        The reason for this post is to understand the level of interest for this add-on so I (cofounder) can add weight to my proposal at our next roadmap meeting.

                                        @joebudi Hi Joe !
                                        You know I'm a fan of Budibase (although personal circumstances have prevented me exploring further).
                                        In principle yes !
                                        The 'in principle' is about what "add-on" means.
                                        What kind of interaction or functionality are you thinking of ?
