Super cool. It's likely in the works but it would be cool to have more recipes / mini templates to start with on the application builder. E.g. a list of most active users or something similarly generic to help me get to something real faster. Also the ability to add an integration / connect postgres from the 'new api' prompt rather than having to go back to the dashboard first

This is a really good idea and something that is on our roadmap to add templates to accelerate tooling development. We're learning about the most common use cases and going to build templates to shortcut getting started. The other thing we've discussed is upon connecting an integration (ex. Postgres) automatically giving you a postgres admin app, similar to what you get with a Django admin for example.

Is that what what you're referring to?

good usability feedback on the New API part of the UI, we will address this!

Yeah pretty much, help me get to a data connected state as fast as possible so I have an app / view to share with someone. It's likely an app has a user's table with created ts, help me generate a chart of signups over last 30 days or something rather than having me manually create an app, drag in a chart, nav about to connect pg and then write the basic SQL. Then once I have a working base I can explore from there

A Django admin replacement would be wonderful and something I'd absolutely love to build with Superblocks!

[bradmenezes]

There are some very good features of Django Admin we can learn from like their onboarding - the major reason some users have replaced Django Admin with Superblocks is that Superblocks works with your db but also internal/external APIS pretty easily, plus there's a Workflow and Cron Job aspect to the platform.

The reason others have chosen to stay with Django admin and not move to Superblocks is they spent a ton of time investing in it (and it works quite well), the switching cost ends up being high.
