We've been testing out Campsite for the last few weeks at Basedash, and I've become a believer in it. I think it's too early to say if I'll be able to convince the whole team to move over (old habits die hard) but I think we'll eventually use it for more and more of our internal communication.
Our original use case was for a Multi.app replacement, as they've were acq by OpenAI recently. We...

We've been laying the groundwork for dashboards for a very very long time. It took a ton of effort, rethinking, refactoring, design and development work to make something that we hope feels absolutely effortless to create and maintain.
You won't have to drag n drop.
You don't have to write SQL (though you still can if you want to)
You don't have to worry about how it looks on small or big...

Congrats on the launch! Has been a huge help with pushing a great experience with Basedash. Having a desktop app on Windows and Mac would have been out of reach for the capacity of our team, but with Todesktop, it's barely any additional effort on our end to maintain. The team is also fast to ship updates and responsive when we have questions, like with launching external windows for more...

SQL or noSQL? What database tech is the best in 2023?
I'm not a developer, but as the designer at Basedash, I'm always curious to hear from devs and founders about the tech that they're using and how the sentiment around dev stacks changes for people in different industries. Knowing what tools people use helps us build a better product, and also see where the industry is headed.
To that end, we've partnered with Prisma, Timescale, Airplane,...

Seems pretty useful, but the permissions it's requesting are beyond what I'd agree to. Why does it need permissions to post, DM, create lists, like, and do anything other than follow and unfollow accounts?

Love Radix! It's the only UI framework I recommend and is core to the product at Basedash. Can't imagine going back to using custom components or overly opinionated frameworks. It takes care of the hard stuff for us and we get to focus on our features.

Hey Product hunt! I’m @tomjohndesign , designer at Basedash.
I’m excited to share with you the inaugural survey we did over the last few months all about Database tech, tooling, and industry data for 2022.
Here’s a little context:
In making decisions of where we should go and what we should support with new features at Basedash, users and prospective users bring up a ton of different ideas...

I have a lot of thoughts on this.
Data as a building block, i.e. something that influences the app I'm building so that I can simulate the app with different data, and use my data model to inform my design.
State as a building block, so I can toggle between logged in/logged out, data loading/data loaded, user attributes such as permission profile (admin, free user, etc) and it informs the...

What databases are the most popular right now?
Okay, so for context, I work at Basedash and we've been doing a bunch of research into trends around databases, tech, emerging back-end tooling, since it directly impacts our roadmap and what types of users we can reach.
It's not easy to figure out industry-wide trends without an industry-wide survey, so we launched The State of Database Survey for 2022 to do just that. There's ones for design...

We've been using Highlight at Basedash for the last year and it's grown into a core part of our workflow. We watch sessions together every Wednesday and always find ways to improve our product. I also use it all the time for trying to solve user issues and better design new features.
Also, in the time we've been using it, they've made a ton of improvements and added features that competitors...
