I've been hacking away with Airtable and I like how friendly it feels. I really think it's the Trello of no-code databases. Actually, I even introduced my sister to it and she's been solving tons of problems with it in her non-coding related job.
What's your favorite and why did you pick that one over the others?
It totally depends on the data you’re working with.
Finally a curveball answer: MongoDB is friendly enough where a no code person could probably use it. They have a Zapier and Integromat integration. Hope this helps!
Nice curveball. Do you know of any good no-code or low-code ways to manage what's in a MongoDB database?
MongoDB has a free tier and they also have a web UI so anyone can search and edit records.
Totally agree with you @marcusstenbeck
I've been using Airtable for years in multiple database-driven projects as well as my own swapfiles, I recently expanded it into a side project.
Other than that - Notion :)
I really like their flexibility and dynamic building blocks, and I'm using it to display tools, directories and so on. Just like this project!
You can also check out Stackby or sheet2api.
Airtable and I think once the custom block open for all, there will be more innovation ideas flow in on how to use it.
Ofcourse Google Sheets :) and thats why we are building a robust no code engine for Google Sheets.
baserow.io has been open sourced today. I had it on my list for a few months. I'll definitely take a look at it.
I use Airtable and am a big fan of it. However I can't wait for notion.so's api to go live.
Do you have plans already of what you're going to do with Notion's API?
Airtable for more modern spreadsheet UX, integrations, blocks and views. But Google Sheets for ubiquity and zero onboarding needed (everyone knows how to use a spreadsheet).
Good point about Google sheets being absolutely zero onboarding. I don't know one person who wouldn't be able to understand how to use Google sheets.
Google Sheets
Why? Have you tried any alternatives?
