Looks super snazzy:
Can I point Retool Database to an existing Postgres database? If not, do y'all have any plans to add support?
How's it work under the hood? Custom extensions?

No custom extensions - we wanted to make it a lightweight and effective layer on top of Postgres. So it’s just a vanilla Postgres database under the hood. The UI gives you access to a lot of the power of Postgres, and for anything that you can’t do via the UI you can use the connection string directly: e.g. create triggers, create compound unique keys, etc.
