Comment on Ask HN: What software/app do you wish would exist?parent

Comments

1) There was a startup a few years back similar to airtable that was acquhired. They had made sizeable inroads to covering the Access footprint. It probably should be a team effort like Airtable though.

It's hard to imagine one person replacing 20+ years of dev effort.

2) Excel and Access prove the need for software in a business and model out use cases.

If Access could render to the web, (similar to lotus notes to domino) that likely would be sufficient. Since most of the access backend is available, maybe that is feasible on some level.
