Windmill allows you to write code in any places but we have a hub augmented every day with pre-made integrations so that you do not have to: https://hub.windmill.dev. We also have native support for BigQuery, Snorflake, Mysql, GraphQL, with dedicated editors.

Hence, I fail to see how it would be any faster to build workflows in tooljet than in windmill. I do not have a business license of tooljet so I have not been able to do the comparison. Interested to hear feedbacks on that.

Our workflow engine and UX seems to be a lot more advanced from what I can see because we have been iterating on it for longer. Congrats on the launch though and may the best open-source alternative to Retool win.

I have not tried the product in depth but this comes from your website headline where it says “Turn scripts into .... “. But great to know you have inbuilt integrations now. Best of luck, may the best internal tooling platform wins.

If you do not know the product then maybe instead of saying that X is simpler/faster/better than Y it would be better/fairer to say "I don't know" or "from a look at their landing" ?

Maybe this should be settled Musk v Zuck style for the internal tooling crown?

On a more serious note how does this compare with Retool? I remember that doing the HN rounds in 2019 and it’s still going

haha, not interested. Sometimes it is okay to bow out of an online conversation :) Retool and ToolJet are building in the same problem space of internal tooling. Primary difference is that ToolJet is open source. And btw, we launched in March 2021.

Open source is nice. I actually find these types of tools useful in testing where you don’t have time to do a full automated suite but you need to compare data between systems
