I second this, the whole point of Retool is that you can build complex apps that you couldn’t with pure no code solutions (i.e Airtable/Notion).

Retool replaced a pain point (devs don’t want to code internal apps) that is now being brought back with a solution like this.

I’ve tried Retool a few times and can’t get into it. I simply don’t feel comfortable in a web UI… I’m primarily a Django/React dev and I would love to see the Django Admin panel philosophy in the React world: quick to build, but editable code all the way down (and in the same repo as my core apps!).

I totally see the appeal of this, I’m bookmarking it and I’m eager to give it a whirl.

Co-founder of Dropbase here. We're a better fit for you given your comments about Django and being in the same repo.

We are an internal tools builder that works with your existing Python codebase, in the same repo as your core app. You can call/use your exiting Django models from Dropbase UI components, and build fullstack internal tools with just Python.
