nikTheo··on Show HN: Diofanti.org Tracking government decisions in Greece
Hey Florents, thanks for sharing about Diofanti.org, it's great to see someone working to increase transparency and accountability in government spending in Greece.

I know that European Union member states are obliged to provide public sector data, including on government spending, based on the EU Directive 2019/1024 but as you mentioned, the implementation and quality of data provided depends on each country.

One suggestion I have is to consider creating a mobile app for Diofanti to make it more accessible to people. Also, you could provide APIs to allow other developers to build on top of your processed data.

Keep up the great work!

You are right andneo the platform as it stands now is suitable for building CRUD applications since what we currently offer is to setup you objects fields, user permissions and data APIs through configuration.

We plan to implement data streams and workflows with Lambda style functions that will cover even the most complex application demands in the near future.

Supabase is a nice service with a lot of functionality but requires that you know advanced features of postgres (rls policies etc ..) to properly setup your data security.

With supabase you are bound to what features can be developed on top of postgres which is a double edge sword in my opinion. in addition, we believe that our simple sql syntax over API is much more intuitive and easy to learn in contrast to postgrest syntax.

Hi Mimisole the platform is multitenant with each app isolated in its workpsace, with profile and permissions sets you can specify user permissions up to the field level.

We haven't implemented the batch data import functionality yet but the only limitation we will have is the batch size. You can insert data one at a time for now.

We are currently in beta. you can try to create a small example Backoffice app on the platform to try out what we offer and if it suits you.

if you need any help setting up your workspace or have any questions we are on discord.
