Comment on Show HN: Blotato – turn scripts into apps without changing code (built in Rust)

Comments

Interesting, I assume this will only or mostly work on CRUD app per se?

The autogenerated UI right now is basically a form, backed by a script, hiding the complexity of creating the frontend and hosting the infrastructure. It reduces the task to implementing a single logical step.

Some examples blotato can be used for:

- Letting a user upload a csv containing customer receipts, grouping them by a particular day and updating an external resource (e.g. a database, stripe, crm, erp, or quickbooks)

- Exposing a form taking internal customer id as an input and cross-correlating it across multiple services such as pulling the last dozen customer messages from Twilio associated with that account id for a particular day
