How good is it at recreating the DabbleDB demo?

DabbleDB was way ahead of its time.

Yup, and it was built in an interesting way, if I remember correctly. Using the continuation-based Smalltalk Seaside framework.

A quote by Avi Bryant regarding continuations in Drabble DB "... in Dabble we essentially don't use continuations although we do use Seaside"

Looks like Airtable took a lot of 'inspiration' from DabbleDB!
