Avo VS Directus

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.

<%= link_to(@car) do %> <%= @car.name %> -- Check this car! <% end %> cars/1"> Tesla -- Check this car! <%= link_to "https://avohq.io/" do %> AvoHQ - The Best Rails Guide <% end %> https://avohq.io/"> AvoHQ - The Best Rails Guide

Access the Avo, and click on Sign Up. After completing registration, click on your profile icon and select Subscriptions, then Choose a plan, choose the Pro version and click on Start 30 day trial. The system URL is not required, click Subscribe. Now you will have your key to use the Avo 2 Pro version for 30 days.

But there's another alternative for Ruby on Rails. This is a shameless plug, but why don't you try Avo?

Nothing really beats Rails. Use something like Jumpstart (jumpstartrails.com) and Avo (https://avohq.io) and you scaffold a full consumer-ready app in literally a few hours.

The thing that bugs me the most with Next.JS and the whole JAMStack movement is that, yeah, you get from "git clone" to deployed on Vercel in two minutes, but if you need to create real app features like a sturdy admin, accounts, authorization, proper asset management, CI/CD, it takes a whole lotta time. I'm not even touching the most common app features.

Hey. I'm Adrian, author of Avo. Avo is similar to Refine but for Ruby on Rails.

It helps developers create CRUD-like applications such as internal tools, admin panels, Content Management Systems and user-facing apps.

I love seeing more and more movement in this space.

Laravel has Nova, Django has Django Admin, and now, Rails has Avo.

As of April 2024, Directus' GitHub repository has accumulated 25.2k stars and 3.5k forks, showcasing its active community. The project has secured $8+ million in funding, further fueling its growth and development.

I don't know, it's something I've wanted many times.

Recently I discovered https://directus.io/ which comes pretty close and it's open source.

Directus: The Shape-Shifting Maverick

The Backend to Build Anything or Everything | Directus

today I discovered https://directus.io/

You could try https://www.airtable.com/ (check the prices) or https://directus.io/ (check the prices) or hire someone :)

I using Directus CMS on several projects with pretty complicated flows, api extensions etc. probably there will be some work if you move. I liked Directus is because it's standard SQL I can always move my DB and documents to another solution. I don't use their hosted solution but they have an unlimited offering for $100 / month.

Have you looked at Directus? I’m not sure exactly what your needs are (sorry if I’ve misunderstood). I used it for my most recent project as the backend for data entry/queries/administration. It supports MySQL, but admins don’t need to know anything about SQL to do complex queries/filters/CSV exports from the Directus UI.

It depends on your skillsets, but I'd highly recommend https://directus.io/ especially if you need "slickness" to raise money otherwise try a pyhat stack if you hate javascript.
