PayloadCMS was recently front page
Can't speak about Retool but I wouldn't want to go away from standard software development life cycle with version control, release management and testing... And I definitely would want to avoid a proprietary platform. Isn't there an open source alternative?
- bootstrpppin 2y agoThanks for that - I hadn't come across PayloadCMS. Retool seems to support basics like version control, release mgt etc but the platform risk of a proprietary platform is certainly a concern.
- lurker_72 2y agoI would also recommend looking at Directus (https://directus.io https://directus.io). We evaluated PayloadCMS to drive the backend of a mobile app and eventually settled on Directus because it supported heterogeneous collections which was something we had to have. Directus also has a template for a multi-tenant app which sounds like something you might need.
- selcuka 2y agoI believe Appsmith is open source, and self-hostable. Never used it, so I'm not sure if it's fully or partially open.
