We've been using firebase for build my apps for the past few years now, and its been great for shipping out apps quickly and not worrying about managing and scaling We built Rowy to solve our own pain points as developers: π΅ Not being able to share Firestore database access to our teammates - in an interface they are familiar with like spreadsheet. π΅ We liked the Airtable experience of collaborating on data but it is limited in scalability, not synced to your production apps, limited storage, and inability to control access at a granular level. π΅ We also liked the Firebase experience for building our apps quickly but their native cloud console is hard to use, especially for non-technical users. π΅ We were repeatedly building automations via third party apps. Current No-code or Low-code options mostly lack flexibility, have feature limitations, or not scalable like Zapier (not to mention the cost!). π΅ Managing 100s of cloud functions in cloud consoles, deploying them via CLIs in terminals, trying to figure out which cloud function is triggered when - was a nightmare! Honestly, we should not be doing things this way in 2021! So we built Rowy and decided to open-source it. Rowy brings you an Airtable-like experience to manage your database. You can write your product functionality effortlessly in the browser with the context of your data. It is flexible, open-source and highly scalable. π We are starting with the ecosystem of Google Cloud Platform/Firebase to help you build your product in minutes.
