I'd trim the columns down to a few and show the user a filter with the displaying columns turned on and let them know that they can toggle more on. The column text length too should be trimmed to a uniform max-length except when clicked on. You could make it pup out on the page with CSS. A better color scheme too won't hurt. Had the same idea when I saw https://github.com/rowyio/rowy. Stumbled on an idea while reading a HN entry a few days back and now I will merge them into a niche product idea. └── Dey well

You can checkout opensource project Rowyhttps://github.com/rowyio/rowy - it a spreadsheet UI for database and can do databasy things like you said! formulas but in JS/TS, on data change trigger of serverless cloud functions, assign default values for database columns, granular permission controls, store files/assets images to cloud storage, bulk deletes and more. Disclaimer, I am one of the makers :)

Hey HN -- I'm finally getting moving on one of the biggest projects I think I'll undertake (it's a cloud provider that aims to run everywhere AWS/GCP/Azure aren't), but while working on that I couldn't help but do some yak shaving on the pre-launch landing page. What I wanted to see was if I could get an API driven approach that was easy to modify/surface to non-technical people and avoid the usual flat file/SQLite/Postgres. I ended up with the usual interest-gathering landing page but with an API that writes to Baserow[0] instead of the database directly (there's technically a database behind baserow of course), which so I wrote about the process. I hit a few gotchas along the way so I did a writeup. I think there's some interesting mashups of "traditional" code-driven flows and no-code tools that are yet to be explored so this was one o

That's correct, Firetable is now Rowy. We are the original creators of the Firetable open-source project and now rebranded to Rowy with tons of new features added in our latest v2.0 launch. I was the Head of Technology/Global Partner at Antler and I have left recently to build this company. Check out our github: https://github.com/rowyio/rowy

Tables I would image when it is released, should be a great Airtable alternative. With Rowy, we are building an Airtable like experience but your actual database on Firestore. So that developers can continue to build their apps. https://github.com/rowyio/rowy

What scale have you tested the UI at? Do you have any demo / benchmarks for over 1M rows for example? Reading through the infinite scrolling PR [1] it looks like scrolling isn’t virtualized (like Airtable’s) so the browser will start choking when it has too many elements in the DOM.

Hi, I am one of the creators of Rowy. With Rowy, we aim to bring to you an Airtable-like experience to manage your database with granular access controls at table and column levels to collaborate with your teammates, but that's just the start and it can do so much more than that. With Rowy you can build your MVP and continue to scale on the GCP/Firebase stack, write cloud functions effortlessly right in your browser. You can also connect to your favourite third party tools via our ready-made flexible extensions or build your own. Use any NPM packages or APIs. Love for your to give it a spin and share your feedback. LIVE demo: https://demo.rowy.io/ Join our community on Discord: https://discord.com/invite/B8yAD5PDX4 Github: https://github.com/rowyio/rowy
