Thanks! Pretty much. The idea is to kind of make easy things easy - but allow a very high ceiling for hacking and modifying them for your use case. Besides, if we generate code for some easy stuff and a low skill user starts to make that mental model between the generated code and the visual output - but scrubbing values or even tweaking a CSS map - I think it fosters learning so much more than opaque and hidden wizards and "magic" code being run.

There is also a whole (user space configed) viz reco system (algo chosen and built templates based on query metadata and specified attribs) - but it's all just a starting point. Low bar, high ceiling? At least that's the idea.

There are lots of other systems focused on reading/writing values from the dash (both headless server processes and active browser actions - all synced with the server). Clojure REPL constructing data shapes to be rendered on the front-end also gives me HTMX vibes, which is kind of cool.

There is also a complete visual flow builder system, that you could use to write ETL... or run "visual functions" triggered by UI actions, etc etc.

Anything that serves moving data back & forth, reaction chains, and making it look beautiful (if you want).
