Budibase is a low-code platform from the company of the same name in Belfast, that enables users to
design, build, automate, deploy and scale custom internal applications in minutes, and with confidence.
It is best suited if you want to build a tool for internal use purpose. It is even better suited if you have your data in Google Sheets. You can build apps with functionlity of CRUD where you can not just view but modify and add new entries so you can make good internal CRM tool or HR tool or anything that you need with the flexibility that Appsmith offers.
Even though its a solid tool I think for now it is best suited to create some relatively complex apps but not best suited to build very complex apps where you need to manipulate data during runtime. But they are actively developing the produt and push updates on the regular basis which makes me feel optimistic about their future.
Building UI even though simple, it gets tougher when you want to build a complex one. The way they have implemented data sources in the UI is bit rigid.
you can not use JS in all the components to manipulate data which makes it less dynamic compared to say AppSmith.
