Thank you for the input, we will work on them.

Spreadsheets has limits to number of rows/cells. And they tend to corrupt after certain limit easily. Then things like creating relation between sheets or deriving different views are not possible/easier in spreadsheet. This is when teams using spreadsheets start to move to databases. But it involves a lot of effort to build a spreadsheet like product on databases. This is where noco helps.

Yes, it could be easily used as Admin UI. We create a virtual schema for every database that we connect to. If there are schema changes done outside noco GUI - then noco has a sync option that does automatically sync the changes.

We're using knexjs to connect to databases. If knexjs generally works with your Cockroachdb. We should be able to work as well. Please reach out on our discord for any help.

Hey, happy to bump in here. I've added page designer to our immediate roadmap now.

What was the Microsoft SQL server version ? and the issue.

We support Forms.

By page designer - its about custom reports from the data.

Yes, its geared towards part-spreadsheet part-database space. We're similar to Airtable mostly.

You can do calculations by creating a column with formula field.

Thank you for shoutout. (Disclaimer : Founder here)

Certainly, I couldn't have seen it coming after hanging out on HN all these years.

>> I too received my first angel check from someone who noticed a co-founder search post

Amazing, tell us more.

Thank you

> I wish there were simple-as-Excel frontends for databases

This is exactly what we are attempting to solve at nocodb : https://github.com/nocodb/nocodb

Which is, nocodb gives you a google-drive like collaborative spreadsheets on your existing databases (MySQL, Postgres etc)

And the original problem in article could be countered with nocodb as we keep audit of all changes done to the database.

If a product is not making a minimum few million dollars - GCP market place doesnt allow you to be listed anyways I think :)

Thank you so much.

Monetization we'll figure it out whilst interacting with our community. AGPL : we don't want to be sorry with likes of AWS etc around :) This wouldn't stop you from using it freely or commercially.

We would be rolling out the tutorial for adding integrations.
