Yes we have hooks for spreadsheet inserts/updates/deletes and we will be working on the frontend part to make it modularised as mentioned in another comment.

Store images in BLOBs - we aren't against it. But we ran short of time to make that work for all databases.

For file storage : it used local filesystem if no storage app is installed.

You can connect to wide variety of storage services : S3, Minio, BackBlaze, GCS, Azure to name a few. I believe Azure storage isn't tested as we didn't have credits with them :)

Yes, I believe NocoDB can be used as admin apps in most backends.

We've audit mechanism to track every single action from all our users. And the access control is really fine grained till column level.

Thank you. Have created the issues as below.

1. #158

2. #159

3. #160

4. AGPL doesn't stop you getting payed for creating your own solution based out of this. The preferred way to run it is as docker. And if there are changes in NocoDB code, it needs to be shared back with community. Otherwise, it is absolutely fine to use it.

5. Plugin/apps is at the heart of NocoDB. Whilst backend part of plugin is modularised, frontend has to be done. And we are using NuxtJs which happened to be an excellent choice for this. The documentation will follow soon.

Totally, makes sense.

NocoDB can be run as a single node.js file and it is just SIX lines of code.

Just mount nocodb into your express.js and it's done.
