   Seems promising

   Avo definitely seems promising and polished. What is more, it's based on all the modern tech that's included within the latest (v7 as of now) version of Rails.

   Unfortunately, its licence is bit less permissive than one would expect. I.e. you can't use it in a commercial product without buying a license. Yes, there are both FREE and Pro version; however, if you are using it on a non-personal project you need to pay for it. That's not inherently bad, as it pays for the support and improvement of the product. Yet, it could be a deterrent for many.

   Something similar to what Sidekiq is doing seems more appropriate - a FREE (free free) and an Enterprise version. Then, you can use the FREE version in any sort of a project, and if the project picks up, you can buy the enterprise version and benefit from the extra features.

   🏁 Competitors: RailsAdmin, Active Admin

   👍 Pros:    Polished design|Modern architecture|Good docs

• Show HN: Build your startup or side project faster with these SaaS templates

  Quality is often much better with these kinds of templates and frameworks, because the creators often can make better default choices. For example, Avo (https://avohq.io) and Bullet Train (https://bullettrain.co/) are IMHO both much higher quality out of the box than what a typical intermediate Rails developer could accomplish in months of full time learning and coding. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Airplane acquired by Airtable and is shutting down

  Founder of Appsmith (https://appsmith.com) here. This is very unfortunate news. I have a lot of respect for the founders & the product. In fact I even used Airplane for a few side projects in the past. It's sad to see the product die. IMO, most folks alluding to them running out money is incorrect. I think they simply ran out of energy or the will to go on. This is very common among early stage companies. But, as... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Web no-code/low-code tool recommendation? Backend+frontend+analytics and simple to learn

  As well as Appsmith & Retool. They all have generous free tiers, in my opinion. Each can be self-hosted too. Source: over 1 year ago

• No code platform that can be self-hosted on AWS

  Hello, you can check out Appsmith. It's an open-source platform with all the features you mentioned and it's great for building business apps! Source: over 1 year ago

• Affordable low code platform for internal tools?

  Appsmith is self hosted right now. It’s as customizable as Retool, easy as Internal, and less glitchy than Budibase. Tooljet also offers a self hosted version, but Appsmiths dev team updates improvements so much faster. Source: over 1 year ago

• February Round-up: New Helm Charts, Product Updates, and Collabs

  If you’ve followed Appsmith for a while, you know that we can do a lot in 30 days! In the second month of 2022, we cleared a few bugs and created an all-new event called How Do I Do X, where many frequently asked questions live. Source: about 2 years ago
