This feels like a CRUD app builder disguised as a visual programming tool. I generally avoid those things because they are hard to debug or extend.

Perhaps this is different because of GraphQL?

In this case, I would typically reach for a battle-tested CRUD building framework like Rails that gives you JSON APIs for free. I am not as familiar with GraphQL frameworks, but I suppose that I could find one as well if I really wanted that.

I am not really sure what people mean by "CMS" anymore. I have always thought of it as a place for people to create and publish pages. It is confusing to me when people use it to mean a structured database.

Maybe we need a new word.
