I've started playing with it but definitely haven't gotten far - behaves very much like Airtable with more focus on the less "tabular" layouts. Like if Airtable Blocks were first-class citizens.

This just launched the other day but I thought it was pretty up there: https://fibery.io
We use https://retool.com
Honorable mention to my own startup https://flatfile.io if you're trying to skip past the data import problem.

Thanks man, and I absolutely agree. Hopefully this can help serve as some inspiration for other things!

Thanks! Yeah, we pitch and expect another system to catch. I would probably think of something like https://www.npmjs.com/package/tableify for converting the output into a table

Hi HN! I'm one of the creators of Flatfile. At the core, it's a simple drop-in, browser-based component (React) that focuses on making the process of uploading CSV / XLS files into any web app nearly effortless. Has a column matching and error resolution experience, and a backend dashboard for supporting customers through import issues.
You can basically just drop this into your app, and with a little configuration get 100% valid and structured JSON data instead of messy, weirdly encoded, and difficult to parse CSV and XLS files.
This is my first time posting a Show HN - But don't go easy. I'd love to hear your thoughts / answer any questions! I wrote a blog post yesterday about my experience launching this as a side project the last couple years https://medium.com/flatfile-io/flatfile-io-the-new-standard-...
Also, there's a developer playground + some docs here: https://flatfile.io/developers
