languagetool VS budibase

Great tool, thanks for sharing. If you are open to suggestions, I would love to have spellcheck in it.

https://github.com/languagetool-org/languagetool

I don't know of a "global" function, but what you use depends largely on where you're doing your writing. It's possible to spellcheck markdown and html files from a terminal with aspell and to find the correct spelling of partial words with look. Some apps, like Grammarcheck can offer you close to global spellcheck. Apps like LanguageTool offer browser addons to check grammar and spelling.

Proofread for spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors (Grammarly, Hemingway Editor, LanguageTool),

Please re-read the wiki thoroughly, line-by-line, format your resume to the wiki guidelines, verify that each of your bullet points begin with a strong action verb and follow the STAR (Situation, Task, Action, and Result) or XYZ (Accomplished D as Measured by Y, by Doing Z) methods, proofread, revise, and repost your resume.

LanguageTool - I liked using Grammarly to check my writing, but it is not great for privacy considering it sends off everything you write to Grammarly servers. LanguageTool is a great open source alternative that you can run locally.

On extensions, for example, I use LanguageTool [1], which is similar to Grammarly. It could be configured with a local server, although I have a “premium” account which sends data to a 3rd party server. I trust this extension to verify my messages on HN, but I can't trust it to have access to my banking account. This is an example of a really useful extension that I'll never be able to fully trust because it has access to all websites, and it sends all that I write to another server.

In fairness, Firefox's advantage has been that Mozilla has a trustworthy manual review process for the “recommended” extensions.

Budibase is great at generating CRUD apps based on a model.

Congratulations to the Airplane team.

Is this Airtable moving in the direction of low-code rather than no code? Puts them up against tools like Budibase [https://github.com/Budibase/budibase] and Retool [Https://retool.com]

I skipped to chapter 9 in the article ("Clogged"), and it looked like Pipes failed because it didn't have a large enough team or a well-defined mission. As a result they couldn't offer a super robust product that would lure in enterprise users. "You could not purchase some number of guaranteed-to-work Pipes calls per month" is the quote from the article.

The reason I think that interesting is because that's the model these days for everything from AI tokens to Monday.com seats. It makes me feel like Pipes was before its time.

That said I've been collecting different "business glue" products that are similar to Pipes. To me, like you say, they aren't as interesting, exciting and intuitive as Pipes was, but maybe it just takes a little more digging. I tried to focus on open source tools but some aren't.
