It's 1977 all over again. Before the next 40 years of canned application software happened, filePro and other self-serve app development systems of the time were just a database with thin skin of ui in the form of input screen designer and output print designer.

As a dentist or whatever, you just define some fields that matter to you. And that actually was enough to do most of the job anyone really needed doing.

Yeah that is basically what I was describing. I guess it wasn't as unique of idea as I thought.
