    Because the single-system paradigm doesn't work any more. However, modern replacements do exist, Airtable is one of the first; it's basically the notion of a "spreadsheet with more structure", and then building forms and such on top of that. I've recently been playing with Grist and like it, although it is rough around the edges.

  • A modern, open-source spreadsheet that goes beyond the grid
    8 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 30 Oct 2023
    i want exactly the opposite - something that does not try to be a spreadsheet, but gives me a grid view of a database table, with concurrent edits a la google sheets, and lets me access the same data from my webapp backend.

    i have been searching for this for literally years, all the time maintaining an app as a google sheets script, because much as i would prefer something self-hosted and customisable, that collaborative grid view is the ideal user interface from my users' point of view. so far nothing has fit the bill - basetool (https://github.com/basetool-io/basetool) might have but it's discontinued and underdocumented, and i'm not really a web developer so i don't feel up to the challenge of getting it running and integrated into an app.

    grist actually came really close from a ui perspective, but it was too focused on being a spreadsheet and doing computation in the frontend. i filed an issue that explains my use case in more detail: https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-core/issues/422

    Founder of Grist here (https://www.getgrist.com/):

    - focus on small teams and individuals

    - open source (with community contributing!)

    - can be run self-managed

    - portable data (lossless export in SQLite format)

    - full of great features (granular access rules, formulas with python, conditional formatting, webhooks, etc etc)

    If it's little-known, it's because we spend too much time building, not enough time selling.
