I’ve been seeing easy ways to store and view tabular data. I’m aware of tools like nocodb, baserow, and mathesar. I’m currently playtesting nocodb. But I wanted to start a discussion on what everyone uses for easily storing tabular data, and if anyone uses these tools.

I’ve also tried nextcloud tables but it still is very early in development from what I can tell.

    NocoDB is awesome, although admittedly I haven’t tried Baserow. The “group by,” Kanban, and form features in NocoDB make data entry easy from mobile and nice to sort on desktop.

      Would you mind explaining novodb to me? As a developer how do I use it in my app? Is there an SDK you’re supposed to use or can you just query the database directly?

        I don’t use NocoDB in an app. I use it as an alternative to a spreadsheet, especially with its web forms and relational columns.

        For development, you would probably want to use their REST API.
