Comment on Launch HN: FlutterFlow (YC W21) – Build Apps Visually

Comments

This looks great. I signed up for a free account to test it out. My only complaint so far is the assumed integration with Firebase, perhaps this is because it's Flutter and they use everything google? Is there a way to integrate other DBs? I see the API feature is only available for premium plans.

The reasons we prioritized Firebase is because it works really well with Flutter and was also what most of our early users preferred. FlutterFlow itself is in fact a Flutter+Firebase app. We take the best ways we know how to build Flutter+Firebase apps and make it easy to do, in a browser.

We definitely want to support more DBs in the future, just a matter of time. Meanwhile, we see some users achieve that goal using API integrations and code export
