Good morning,
I wanted to introduce this little, unpretentious piece of software, which is intended as a small programmable database for hobbyists, like a mini Access but with a scripting language for those who like parentheses.
Your opinions are welcome.
Regards,

- hiatus 2y agoI don't understand —screenshots and a feature list are among the first few links at the top.
- spxneo 2y agoguess I missed it, im used to scrolling and seeing screenshots and features on splash page. I must admit I wasn't very interested in this piece of software to begin with.
- CRConrad 2y ago> guess I missed it, im used to scrolling and seeing screenshots and features on splash page. Sigh... A generation conditioned by horrible endless-scroll single-page "applications" (web sites).
- jeremyjh 2y agoSure buddy. I began using the web in 1996 and I had the same reaction.
- sigzero 2y agoThat says more about you then it does about the site. :)
- lazyasciiart 2y agoYes, I believe it is intended to say that he is definitively not part of “ A generation conditioned by horrible endless-scroll single-page "applications" ”
- CRConrad 2y agoWell, seems at least part of older generations are conditioned too. I never specified any hard age limits, did I?
- CRConrad 2y ago> I began using the web in 1996 BTW: So did I. Or if it was '95.
- dleeftink 2y agoI think -- if in jest -- this is succinct assessment of the state of the web. Endlessly scrolling on things we aren't remotely interested in.
- anonzzzies 2y agoGuess you also didn’t see a site for a long time where you have to press buttons to do things instead of just scroll down? Not meant to be snarky: I got the same comment on our saas products. Guess people want ’sales sites’ to be one pagers; I don’t exactly know why. Personally I don’t see the difference between scrolling down or pressing buttons but he.
- spxneo 2y agoI just shared my opinion, we disagree. I'm okay with this. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- kitd 2y agoOP hasn't replied to you AFAICS
- TeMPOraL 2y agoConvenience and familiarity. I'm ashamed to admit, but I too expect to see screenshots and features listed inline on the landing page; it's been a common practice in the last 10 years or so. > Personally I don’t see the difference between scrolling down or pressing buttons Scrolling is untargeted, you just move the wheel or drag your fingers back and forth. Pressing buttons requires you to identify such elements, target and then click them. Both sound trivial, but they're different classes of trivial.
- calgoo 2y agoInteresting as I find the complete opposite for myself; I love the easy access to all options at the top instead of doom scrolling for possible information usually hidden between horrible animations that slide in and out, breaking natural scrolling etc.

- psadri 2y agoGreat! This reminds me of FileMaker and similar RAD desktop tools. Curious to know what kind of projects people are using it for?
- pkphilip 2y agoVery nice! Looks great! May I suggest that you have a "Get Started" button right on the home page itself with a very basic tutorial?
- SuperHeavy256 2y agoThanks for sharing. I was looking for something just like this actually.
- ComodoHacker 2y agoIs there any technical docs on internals? How it does I/O, caching, consistency, concurrency etc.?
- KaiserPro 2y agothat's probably not what this is aimed at. especially as most people have SSDs and loads[1] of ram [1] compared to the days of filemaker
- hilti 2y agoAmiga?! Just reading this warmed my heart. Awesome project - congratulations!
