It's interesting that nothing open source has emerged in this space.

Lots of choices in the closed source space. Salesforce, Airtable, Quickbase, Google AppMaker, Knack, Zoho, etc.

It takes a lot of hand holding when your "citizen developers" (legit Salesforce term) are unqualified engineers.

Unsure how that combines with open source...

Been trying to use Airtable for a few apps (project management, quotes, etc) and it just lacks enough that it can't be used practically in a reusable fashion.

Actually Yazz.com is open source and a low code environment so this is not true
