This is a great point and one reason I am left scratching my head when considering building applications on the JAM stack.

We are working on a solution to this with WeBase [1] and I'd love to see us do an integration with Netlify here where you build with WeBase and host on Netlify (and get automatic API integration with your data models).

you can achieve that with netlify build plugins but it is still a fairly basic stage right now - get in touch with their DX team!

(disclaimer, i worked there)

what's the pitch vs an airtable wich i already use ?

[harrisreynolds]

Airtable is a great platform and they have built a nice UI on top of their data modeling tools. But... they don’t allow customization of the UI. WeBase has the same power of Airtable for data models combined with the ability to create custom views like you would do with Webflow.
