As in a single person made this? Even for a team of 10 that is simply amazing: - Attractive and professional landing page - Fully featured demo site, free to try - [1] Over 10 SDK's built for all popular platforms (react, vue, angular... etc)?!! I would be happy to have implemented just a fraction of what you've done... Like a sibling comment said; you should be very proud of yourself Get ready to scale :) [1] https://github.com/BuilderIO/builder/tree/master/packages https://github.com/BuilderIO/builder/tree/master/packages

Yeah damn it’s good, I was assuming this was a company posting? Also the plans are good value. And backend/front end integration is well thought out. My concern for you is there are a lot of GUI site builders out there. So I wonder how this stands out?

  Thanks! I'm not sure what a company posting means but yes? Haha the company is just me anyway Your concern is totally valid, and I perhaps need to make this more clear on my landing page. But Builder is different because it works like a headless CMS. It can hook into any site to power page building, regardless of what tech stack that site was made with. So as opposed to other site builders that lock you into their system completely and can't hardly be extended with real code and engineers, Builder does this in reverse. Companies come to use my product when they have already built some kind of custom website, but need to provided non-dev users with the ability to quickly build and test pages. It just takes one simple API integration to make all that possible and retains your freedom to completely own your tech stack. Anyway, happy to elaborate further if you like! Edit: typos

  May I ask how much time it took you to build it.

    Absolutely - it's been about a year and a half of work so far
