Ask HN: I want to create a personal health dashboard, what should I use?
Shameless plug for Saltcorn (https://saltcorn.com), which is the simplest and open sourceiest way of creating a database web application for when you want an upgrade from Excel with proper table with fields and relationships. Data viz, pivot table plugins available.

In Defense
That was a good read - liked the balance, and agree with his description of the ideal product, which is very close to mine.
I'd add the option of commercial hosting and support to that list, which led me to Budibase - great product, although in the end I was left feeling "no code - but so many clicks!", although I have not gone back to look at v2. https://budibase.com/
The author might care to take a look at Saltcorn, which is in the "Goldilocks" zone for me - enough of everything, not too much of anything. I should write that up myself. https://saltcorn.com/

Boss left and now I need to clean up his mess. Looking for advice/venting.
This is the most important part. Otherwise you will replace an undocumented mess with another unstructured documentation mess in no time. A wiki is a great place to prototype documentation concepts, but it's hard to keep it consistent if no rules are enforced. For more structured documentation/information, tools like https://saltcorn.com/ may be even more helpful.

Ask HN: Which NoCode platforms are fine?
Saltcorn [1] is worth a look. The back-end is Postgres, so integrations are simple. It seems to work how my mind works, it's fun to use, and I don't feel limited or locked in because the data and model are in Postgres.

Ask HN: FOSS low-code/no-code platforms?
Why the snark? I see value in no-code/low-code platforms for many people—integrating with "traditional" code to fill in the lack of domain-specific features and starting a strong FOSS alternative early on is critical. I just started reading and found these two projects that seem to be trying to accomplish just that [1][2] though they seem very early. I would love to see what other insights HN has and what they think about a FOSS alternative's potential.

How to build a Google Meet AI assistant app in 10 minutes without coding
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.

NoCode Newbie: Restaurant hoping to consolidate and reduce overhead
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.

Git in Appsmith: Every Developer Has Been Saved by Git — So, Why Isn’t it a Feature of App Platforms?
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.
