I haven’t used it for a while as I stopped using low code tools since ChatGPT’s release, but I remember:
- the final application is a bit slow to load, there is a lot of code.
- it uses mongodb internally. I don’t like having mongodb on my stacks.
- the docker and kubernetes deployments were not following best practices. They ran everything, even mongodb and redis, in a stateful container with a process manager inside the container.
- version controlling the apps wasn’t trivial.
- some features weren’t open source so I had to quickly hack them again.
I found retool, proprietary, to be better if you can afford it.
- mgummelt 3y agoHow do you use ChatGPT to write CRUD apps? Do you mean Github Copilot?
- speedgoose 3y agoI use them both. I use ChatGPT to do the big parts like the SQL schema and some boilerplate. It works better in Python with fastAPI than Rust with Axum though.
- mgummelt 3y agoCool. How do you use it to generate the frontend CRUD interfaces?
- speedgoose 3y agoI go with React and use GitHub copilot more but ChatGPT can do the big or more advanced components. It’s a lot of manual work still.
