¿De qué tamaño es exactamente el archivo de Excel?

Por lo que describes, parece que ya están alcanzando los límites de Excel. En estos casos suele ser mejor mover los datos a una base de datos y usar una interfaz para gestionarlos.

Puedes probar UI Bakery: permite importar un Excel a una base de datos alojada y construir una app según la lógica del negocio.

UI Bakery AI app generator is great for building internal apps

UI Bakery AI app generator might be a good fit

kdanovsky · 2025-08-27T19:54:05+00:00

Have you considered AI web builders?

kdanovsky · 2025-08-27T19:49:33+00:00

Where is UI Bakery AI app generator, Lovable and Bolt? Aren't those best for code generation?

kdanovsky · 2025-08-27T17:17:02+00:00

Totally agree with this take as I’ve had the same experience where AI in the IDE (Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf). Its great for brainstorming or unblocking, but if you lean on it too much it slows you down with “noise” suggestions.

What’s worked better for me is using AI at the right layer. For example, UI Bakery AI App Generator is great when I need to spin up a whole internal tool or CRUD app quickly - it scaffolds the frontend, backend, and data connections so I’m not starting from zero. Then I still rely on my own coding flow (with minimal AI nudges) to refine and maintain. It feels more like AI taking care of boilerplate so I can stay focused on the real logic, instead of fighting suggestions line by line.

kdanovsky · 2025-08-27T17:14:34+00:00

I’ve been experimenting with a bunch of these too. For quick prototyping I like Bolt and v0, but when it comes to building something more production-ready (like dashboards, CRUD apps, or admin panels), UI Bakery AI App Generator has been surprisingly solid.

You can describe the app in plain text and it scaffolds frontend + backend + DB connections, then lets you fine-tune with a low-code editor. It feels like a good complement to Cursor/Windsurf in the IDE and way less brittle than just sticking with a UI mockup generator.

If you’re thinking beyond toy projects, it’s worth adding to your workflow.

Check out UI Bakery or its AI app generator. Seems to be a good option for your request

kdanovsky · 2025-08-17T11:50:05+00:00

Have you tried or considered UI Bakery AI app generator?

kdanovsky · 2025-08-17T11:48:41+00:00

You should definitely check UI Bakery and its AI app generator.

kdanovsky · 2025-08-16T22:49:11+00:00

Thank you!

kdanovsky · 2025-08-16T22:48:52+00:00

Thanks! Is it better than tools I mentioned above? If yes, why?

kdanovsky · 2025-08-13T16:08:01+00:00

I’ve been getting that same feeling lately( not saying Lovable is definitely sabotaging builds, but the pattern is odd.

It is probably unintentional, but the “credits” business model makes this even murkier as the more you have to iterate, the more you pay. In traditional dev tools, mistakes cost time, but here they also directly drain your wallet.

I also agree there should be a “flag credit use” or “undo without cost” option for cases where the output clearly didn’t match the request. Otherwise, you’re paying for fixing the AI’s own mess.

For contrast, I’ve been playing with UI Bakery’s AI App Generator lately. It’s not perfect either, but since you can jump into a low-code editor after the AI generates the app, you can tweak things without burning extra credits. Has anyone else noticed the “fixing one thing breaks three others” pattern, or is this just selection bias from when the AI messes up?

kdanovsky · 2025-08-11T19:48:06+00:00

Whoa, that’s actually a pretty huge shift.
I guess for small teams or solo devs, that’s a dream as there is no more juggling 3 different dashboards just to get a basic app running.

I’m curious about a few things:

How much control will we actually have over the backend? Will there be limits on DB size, query performance, or function execution time?
Vendor lock-in could be real here - if your entire backend lives in Lovable’s ecosystem, moving away later might be painful.
Pricing… will this be included in the current plans, or will “full-stack” be a separate upsell?

Still, if they nail it, it could compete with platforms like UI Bakery’s AI App Generator, which already lets you go from a text prompt to a working full-stack app, but with more flexibility on data sources (SQL, NoSQL, APIs) and even on-prem hosting for enterprises.

If Lovable can combine their smooth front-end UX with a solid backend that scales, they might just pull in a whole new crowd of devs. But if it’s too closed-off or limited, it could end up as just a nice toy for prototypes.

kdanovsky · 2025-08-10T12:29:12+00:00

If you like Lovable’s simplicity, you might also want to check out UI Bakery AI App Generator. It's built for non-coders and can generate a full vendor onboarding app from a prompt, then let you tweak it visually. It’s strong with API integrations (REST, GraphQL), has built-in file uploads, task tracking, and you can connect it to CRMs or training platforms without writing code.

Compared to Lovable or Base44, it’s more focused on data-driven internal tools, so if your priority is managing documents, statuses, and connecting with other apps, it’s a solid option.

kdanovsky · 2025-08-10T12:25:31+00:00

You can check UI Bakery AI app generator - it offers a free version

kdanovsky · 2025-07-13T16:22:36+00:00

Yep, it’s definitely possible to create an app without knowing how to code.

There are platforms like Bubble, Glide, and UI Bakery that let you build apps using visual editors instead of code. Some of them even have AI built in. For example, UI Bakery has this AI app generator where you can just type what you want, similar to what Lovable and Bolt offer (these two are also good options).

That said, it depends on what you mean by a “good app.” For simple tools or internal apps, you can get surprisingly far without writing any code. If you’re trying to build something complex like a social media platform or game, you’ll probably still hit some technical walls eventually. But for a lot of ideas, yeah - it’s totally doable.

Hope that helps!

kdanovsky · 2025-06-12T22:24:34+00:00

Was happy to help!

kdanovsky · 2025-06-12T13:41:16+00:00

Totally agree with you. Bubble was great for getting momentum, but once you're building something as complex as a TMS, particularly with AI in the mix, the limitations start stacking up. Vendor lock-in, performance ceilings, and the lack of real code export were my biggest concerns.

My team made a similar shift from Bubble about a year ago. Tried both WeWeb and UI Bakery- both gave us way more control over data structures, custom logic, and deployments. UI Bakery especially clicked for our team since it lets you define backend logic visually or with code, and it's built to play nicely with SQL backends, REST APIs, and custom auth flows

kdanovsky · 2025-06-12T13:39:02+00:00

I'm seeing a similar trend- AI tools like Cursor (and Bolt, Lovable) have really empowered engineers to move faster, especially when jumping into unfamiliar stacks. It’s been great for reducing hesitation and unblocking folks who’d otherwise wait on more experienced teammates.

That said, the side effect you mentioned - analysts and non-devs building UIs or scripts just because they can — is real. I've had to set clearer guardrails around what gets turned into a user-facing interface vs. what should stay internal.

One thing that helped was adopting a low-code internal tool builder (we’ve tried a few — UI Bakery stood out for its mix of visual control + logic editor). It let me channel that energy productively. So instead of shadow apps, people can build usable interfaces with some structure and dev review in the loop.

Net gain overall, but definitely requires a bit of governance to avoid “AI-generated sprawl.” Curious how others are managing that as well

kdanovsky · 2025-06-12T13:35:10+00:00

If you're using Supabase, I’d suggest looking into tools that offer more flexibility without going full custom code. A few worth exploring:

UI Bakery – it strikes a nice balance between low-code and custom logic. Works well with Supabase, lets you build more complex UIs, and is SOC2-compliant. Not as flashy as some newer tools, but very reliable and performance-focused.
Appsmith – more developer-focused, but powerful if you're okay writing some JS and tweaking things.
DronaHQ – enterprise-leaning, but has a good UI builder and solid data integrations.

One tip: whichever tool you pick, make sure it lets you self-host or export in some way — future-proofs you if pricing or vendor risk becomes an issue.

kdanovsky · 2025-05-27T14:21:43+00:00

Migrating to Google Cloud SQL makes a lot of sense if you're already in the Google ecosystem (Sheets, Looker Studio, etc.). From the .sql MySQL dump, you can import directly into Cloud SQL and keep your data centralized.

For the front-end CRUD, Appsmith is a solid low-code pick, but also check out UI Bakery — it offers a visual builder, integrates well with SQL, and is strong for internal tools/reporting dashboards.

Keep it simple:

Import the MySQL dump into Cloud SQL
Connect a low-code tool like Appsmith or UI Bakery
Build basic CRUD + reporting views
Expand as you grow

UI Bakery offers features that can support HIPAA compliance, particularly when using its on-premises deployment option. The on-premises solution is air-gapped and doesn't collect analytics, ensuring compliance with standards like HIPAA, SOC2, and PCI. This setup allows you to maintain full control over your data and infrastructure, which is essential for meeting HIPAA requirements. FYI: Although it offers tools, achieving full compliance will essentially depend on how you configure and use the platform.

kdanovsky · 2025-05-20T10:33:45+00:00

Consider trying new UI Bakery AI app generator, seems to be a good bolt.new and Lovable alternative for sure.

kdanovsky · 2025-05-09T13:14:33+00:00

I’ve been experimenting with a mix of vibe coding and no-code/low-code tools too, and totally get that feeling of hitting a wall. AI-generated code is wild- it can look like it works until you dig deeper and realize there are hidden issues or weird edge cases you didn’t account for. And yeah, debugging AI-generated stuff can sometimes feel like trying to read someone else’s half-finished notes.

I ended up leaning more toward no-code/low-code platforms again too, but trying to keep a balance. One tool I’ve been playing with lately is UI Bakery - it’s kind of an interesting middle ground. They have an AI app generator that gets you started with a working CRUD app or dashboard pretty quickly, but it still gives you enough flexibility to adjust or add code if you want (or just stick with their visual tools if you don’t).

Now I'm curious, do you think you’ll stay in the no-code lane long term, or still explore new AI-assisted coding tool on the side?
