can I use this as a collaborative grid component in my own project? that is, I don't want any of the no-code, spreadsheet etc features, I just want part of the frontend of my own app to be a grid that multiple people can edit, persisted in a database table that my own phoenix/rails/whatever process also has access to.

A more optimal approach is to utilize the SDK to use the table as a React component within the application. This capability will be iterated later. Teable's UI interface is all built on top of a standalone SDK. In theory, both component and collaborative capabilities can be exposed externally, but it will take some time.

thanks! i've been hoping for this functionality for years but none of the airtable replacements so far has provided it.

Technically feasible, if you deploy Teable under the same domain with your own app, the user sessions can be shared then you can use an iframe to embed the table into your application, and backend services can access table data within Teable through SQL or API.
