Also now you're gonna make customer support folks edit the DB?
- With Django, this is generated for you. It's literally free.
- With DotNet Core, also can be generated.
- Pretty sure Spring MVC has something similar.
- With Rails - can also be generated, or built very quickly with Hotwire.
- With React, this takes a couple minutes. Just have a generic "flags" list you can toggle etc. There are like a million form generation libraries.
At the end of the day if it takes you a week to get a UI with a list of buttons and checkboxes out, you need to rethink the technologies and process you're using if you're trying to move fast. You should probably do away with the process, too, for this early of an organization.

- winrid 3y agoYeah probably. If it's just one guy then... maybe. Personally I found putting 5mins into a little UI with text inputs useful when a customer in another timezone reaches out at 11pm and I just have my phone - can get that five star review by just making the adjustment right then.
- sisve 3y agoI like your vibe. Execution > Idea. It's def true for so many startups that they are really really slow in execution. You need to find developes that execute and not talk about 2 hours in a retrospective about clean code.
- folmar 3y agoFor Spring I find https://bootify.io https://bootify.io does a great job of generating DB, models, CRUD frontend+backend. Not open source but the basic variant is free (and I mean really free to use, no registration, just use it) and the code generated is reasonable for further development.
