Congrats on launching! I love the design and the clever loading messages ("Harambe would love this"). Do you plan to support an export option if I want to self-host?

Having worked in the same problem space, I can heavily recommend to get expert input when evaluating which features to use.

afrnz··on SQLModel – SQL Databases in FastAPI
Well done Sébastian - I have been waiting for this. Having seperate SQLAlchemy and pydantic models always seemed like a spot where the whole FastAPI developer experience wasn't ideal imo. Looking forward to try this out :)
