appsmith VS Benthos

appsmith — Low code project to build admin panels, internal tools, and dashboards. Integrates with 15+ databases and any API.

For instance, although we don't have a native signature capture widget (yet), you can easily build one with just a few lines of JavaScript, and the signaturePad.js library.

Effective communication and efficient meeting management are key to a team's success in the modern workplace. Recognizing this, we will develop an AI-powered meeting assistant app to transform Google Meet recordings into automatically generated meeting notes with key takeaways and action items. The blog post is tailored for every creator from developers to no-coders who are interested in the intersection of AI and productivity tools. It's particularly useful for those with limited AI-development experience and who want to build AI applications by using simple low-code tools like Unbody and Appsmith.

And if you don't need a mobile app and can get by with web only, check out Appsmith. It's open-source, can connect to Google Sheets, Airtable, and any API or database, and is free for unlimited users and apps. Feel free to DM me if you need a hand getting started with either one. I'm Joseph from the Appsmith Developer Relations team, and GreenFlux on the AppSheet forums.

Appsmith- Build build custom software on top of your data.

This wasn't an easy journey. While this functionality was in high demand, early versions were frustrating to use. In our earliest implementations, it wasn't even possible to pinpoint where the conflicts were in a file. Even members of the Appsmith development team would avoid using our early Git implementations. We even had a rule for our internal “Hackathons” that using the Git feature was banned because it kept breaking! So we know why other app platforms had avoided fully implementing Git: it really was a challenge to get it working right.

Ever tried building a responsive web application using AppSmith as the frontend and Baserow as the backend? Well, Frederik Duchi created a new set of videos showcasing the entire process! The videos include an interesting use case: reporting a nest of Asian hornets in an area. 🤯

I’ve used https://www.benthos.dev/ and it’s really easy and well implemented. The author is also very responsive

Looks cool. What is the difference between this tools and benthos (https://www.benthos.dev/)?

You might want to gradually replace that one with https://github.com/twmb/franz-go because Shopify is looking to find a new owner for Sarama and, until or if they do, it seems to be falling behind with maintenance: https://github.com/Shopify/sarama/issues/2461 For example, they still haven’t addressed this breaking change https://github.com/Shopify/sarama/issues/2358. franz-go has worked well so far in Benthos https://github.com/benthosdev/benthos/tree/main/internal/impl/kafka and it will likely end up as the only implementation once the Sarama-based one will be deprecated

I upload a mix of code reviews and live streams on https://www.youtube.com/@Jeffail, mostly building https://www.benthos.dev out in the open so the content ranges from beginner friendly stuff to more advanced things like stream processing, parser combinators, etc.
