That's cool, it's kind of like Scratch [*] for business. Presumably the market is people who don't like Retool because it is too high-level (not enough control) and don't like code because it's too low-level (too much boilerplate and tool complexity).

The risk is that the finer grained control stuff is too much like code ('you lost me at "loop" and "condition"', etc.), or not powerful enough to do the tasks that Retool isn't good at, without diving deep into the weeds, and you're not as good as Retool wrt the tasks that Retool excels at.

Definitely cool that you can extend it with code, though I haven't parsed how that works.
