Reviewer scorecard
“Built-in database means zero external dependencies for simple CRUD apps. The automation engine is a nice bonus.”
“Issue-to-PR workflow is the right abstraction. The planning step prevents the 'just generate code' antipattern.”
“For simple internal tools that need their own database, Budibase's self-contained approach is practical.”
“Still limited in what it can handle. Works for straightforward issues but struggles with anything architecturally complex.”
“The internal tools market is crowded. Budibase, Appsmith, ToolJet — differentiation is minimal.”
“This is where all development is heading — describe what you want, AI plans and implements. GitHub has distribution advantage.”
