For us not-so-smart-people who liked MS Access: PHPRunner.

From a programming standpoint, it's the worst thing in the world: A Windows GUI thing that builds PHP apps and it's closed source.

From a get-stuff-done standpoint: I made a tracking web-app for large expensive tools that knows about Customers, Project Locations, Scheduling, Work Orders and Invoicing - it will grab a customer signature and email them the receipt. I did it in about four hours.

It has hooks in the system for those that actually know what they're doing (not me) to embed PHP code at important points.

Interesting. Looking at it, it seems it is a decent solution for building MVP's for those dumb clients that want stuff done in a weekend. Does it generate PHP 7? Good PHP 7?
