• How to Build Internal Tools 100x Faster

  It is possible to speed up the development and delivery process for many internal applications by using no-code or low code tools. These vary in offerings from open source to SaaS, including popular ones like AirTable, BudiBase, Retool, NocoDB and others. These can all greatly help speed up delivery times. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• Growing a side-project to 100k Unique Visitors in one week

  For the backend, I opted for Airtable as a database. It's a simple, no-code solution that I've used before. It's not the most powerful database, but it's perfect for a project like this. I could easily add, edit, and delete records, and it has an embeddable form functionality that I used for user submissions. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• A list of SaaS, PaaS and IaaS offerings that have free tiers of interest to devops and infradev

  Airtable.com — Looks like a spreadsheet, but it's a relational database unlimited bases, 1,200 rows/base, and 1,000 API requests/month. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• How to generate links to a record to view it in an Interface?

  The ?XXXXX part of the URL identifies the type of interface page it is. Just copy that and then your formula is just "https://airtable.com.../...?XXXXXX=" & RECORD_ID() I'm not sure it works in every type of interface page (where you've started from a blank page for example). There has to be something to identify the record viewed from the page, if you see what I mean. Source: over 1 year ago

  Beautiful work! Very intuitive, thanks for sharing! I was looking for a no nonsense planning tool. Will use it for planning the v3 release of DataGridXL, coming soon! (https://datagridxl.com). - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Show HN: We Built the Fastest Spreadsheet

  Congrats on releasing the product! What are you using instead of the native scroll event of a browser element? Are you listener to `onwheel` events? Have you find a way to keep scrolling momentun scroll-browser/cross-device or do you normalize the delta to +1/-1? I am the creator of DataGridXL (https://datagridxl.com), an Excel-like data grid component and it uses native scrolling. However, the document/sheet... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Quality is a hard sell in big tech

  I have the same experience with my product DataGridXL (https://datagridxl.com). I spent a lot of time minimizing bugs and I choose deliberately to have less features and focus ond speed aan reliability. But website visitors only see that a competing product has 2x the features (at great cost). I have a customer with 10 million end users, in one year they have reported only 2 bugs, both bugs fixed within a day.... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Please Make Your Table Headings Sticky

  Instead of sticky headers, I would suggest using a limited viewport height, so that the headers always remain visible. Like in DataGridXL (https://datagridxl.com) disclaimer: I am the creator. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Show HN: Edit CSV Online

  Edit CSV Online is a free tool that provides an Excel-like interface to quickly edit CSV files. I made it to promoto the Excel-like data editor DataGridXL.com (https://datagridxl.com). Should I attempt to monetize this or keep using it a promo for the component? - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
