Future of Coding

Is anyone working on the future of coding internal apps and tools? In every company I've worked for we've had a fairly large internal web app that didn't get as much love

If you haven't seen it, <https://tryretool.com/>

They even say "internal tools" in the name :heart_eyes:

Now we just gotta figure out how to go directly from data to a UI

Tyretool is basically a web version of Filemaker Pro without any of the graphical customization possibilities at $10/user/month, so slightly cheaper than filemaker pro pricing for small user bases, but a great deal more expensive for large numbers of users. Filemaker Pro may still have a poor scripting language, but it is extremely powerful, and i have used Filemaker Pro many times for small databases because it is so easy to work with, and so well documented at this point, being 20+ years old. Filemaker Pro is one of those products like Delphi that gets zero love because it is so simple.

I tried looking for Tyretool and couldn't find anything online. Haven't looked into Filemaker though
