  💡【About Metabase】 https://www.metabase.com/docs/latest/users-guide/01-what-is-metabase.html https://github.com/metabase/metabase Metabase is an open source business intelligence tool that lets you create charts and dashboards using data from a variety of databases and data sources.

• what's your experience with Looker ?

  - Zing Data - has a free slick mobile app for querying + dataviz. Works really well on mobile, but no web support yet. - Metabase has a good web-base set of querying and dataviz tools with a free variant. Good on web, but no mobile support so sales people still ping the BI team :/

• Metabase- using joins with mongodb
  reddit.com/r/mongodb | 2021-04-08

  it looks like Metabase currently doesn’t support joins on MongoDB through the UI: https://github.com/metabase/metabase/issues/9095 98 - You would need to do it with a Native question - but not sure if you will be able to do this anyway. You can try using the UI to create a simple question and then go to the Notebook editor to convert it to a query: https://www.metabase.com/docs/latest/users-guide/custom-questions.html#viewing-the-sql-that-powers-your-question

• Ask HN: Best (Low-/No-Code) Solution for Simple Web-Based Database Front Ends
  news.ycombinator.com | 2021-04-01

  > I'm currently looking for a solution to provide (non-technical) team members with a way to interact with a SQL database ... While I'm generally willing to pay, I'd really prefer an open and self-hosted solution.

  You should definitively check Metabase [0] then: it's open source, very easy to self-host, and democratize data access inside your team. We started using this for the same reason 3 years ago, I cannot recommend it more.
