Build user-facing prototypes with your real data.

Every startup/company I work for I've had to jury rig ways to get new product ideas in front of users. Google sheets, Grafana boards, Chartio (RIP), etc all to go "SQL query" -> "user-accessible website". For some reason Retool doesn't have a "make externally available to these people".

So I'm playing around with how to build a generic interface between db and user access panel.
