>reactive state based on custom forms.

I'd say there is something like that already in Motor Admin.

So for custom forms it's possible to use conditions to display certain fields based on other field values.

Also it's possible to feed form field with selector options via SQL queries and those queries-options are "reactive" via variables as well.

You can learn more about it here: https://github.com/motor-admin/motor-admin-rails/blob/master...

Here is an example of complex forms: https://motor-admin.herokuapp.com/demo/forms/2

Hope that's something similar to what you expected to achieve with the admin tool.

It supports PostgreSQL and MySql.

GraphQL API is not supported yet.

Motor Admin generates json-rest API under the hood on top of the database - I might be wrong but I don't know any good use case where Graphql API server as a proxy between the data and the admin UI could be useful.

Oh got it, here is a Docker file to build rails app from source without downloading binary:

https://github.com/motor-admin/motor-admin/blob/08ba1e4e339a...

Will add it back to the repository in case others need it too.

Good point, thanks! Will add it shortly!

Yes, that's correct.

Docker file is available in the repo: https://github.com/motor-admin/motor-admin/blob/master/Docke...

Unfortunately It doesn't support SQL Server yet.

But SQL Server might come in the future - stay tuned!

https://discord.com/invite/mFFJKSTgw3 - feel free to join Motor Admin discord server to get notified once SQL Server support is added.

Thanks!

Regarding your question - Motor Admin Ruby/Rails code is available under: https://github.com/motor-admin/motor-admin - so you can dockerize this Rails app from here.

But binaries still should be a much better option - you can join https://discord.com/invite/mFFJKSTgw3 if you have any questions.

Thanks, yeah I hope new/small startups could find this tool useful. Large companies could also use it to manage some part of their business while keeping their old admin UI in place.

The biggest difference is that Motor Admin has a convenient self-hosted option with a single click deploy. Self-hosted comes with many benefits like custom domain, ability to host under VPN, and faster UI due to lower network roundtrip and CORS avoidance.

Also, Motor Admin open-source version has powerful business intelligence features with custom SQL reports, BI dashboards with variables and fields, and automated email reports.

Also Motor Admin's UI is optimized on mobile and the UI is faster in general.

In terms of available features open-source, self-hosted Motor Admin could become a much better option than ForestAdmin SaaS for an admin interface.

Retool is focused more on visual builders and requires more configurations/code to set everything up via custom dashboards.

Motor Admin has a simple unified Admin UI without the need of actually building the UIs unlike in Retool WYSIWYG.

The versatility of Motor Admin can be achieved via in-app UI configurations, custom forms, reports, and dashboards.

Btw, here is a short demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZD4Six8ZEP8

Also, Motor Admin has a simple self-hosted deployment option.

Hello everyone, Motor Admin creator here

Last year I've been searching for some administration engine for my Rails side project and I was not able to find a suitable option. I hate writing a ton of custom code for internal admin/tools so I decided to write even more code to build a general-purpose, no-code Motor Admin

Motor Admin allows to convert raw data into a powerful admin panel to cover almost every operation needed for most businesses.

Features:

- CRUD out of the box with many customization options

- Custom data reports with SQL

- Business intelligence dashboards with fields and variables

- Forms builder for custom workflows to integrate with API

- Report alerts via Email or Slack

- User roles and permissions

- Audit log

- English, Spanish, Portuguese UI languages

- Works nicely on mobile screens

Motor Admin is distributed as a single executable binary - it can be easily self-hosted on Heroku or via Docker. Also, it's possible to try it locally with binaries for macOS and Ubuntu Linux.

Would be glad to receive any feedback or answer any questions regarding the project.

Thanks for the feedback! I just replied to your opened Github issue (the app requires more RAM to function than your docker can allocate - you can add more memory via docker engine settings).

Hi, SiteInspector creator here: as a web developer I've had launched various different websites over the years. I personally experienced how easy is to make a typo on a website and how hard is to spot it afterward. So a logical solution for me was to find a tool that can help to catch errors on a website, but I was not able to find a good tool to do the job. So I've built SiteInspector so that developers or regular website owners can keep their website errors-free with a modern and convenient website scanner app. SiteInspector app can be hosted on Heroku or in Docker and launched in less than 5 minutes with a single command. The app was written in Ruby/Rails and uses Vue.js on the front-end, also it support arm64 architecture. You can check a read-only demo UI using this URL: https://demo.getsiteinspector.com/reports I'll be very happy to answer any questions you may have and get your feedback.

There is no such thing as registration because it's not a SaaS but an open-source, self-hosted software - https://github.com/siteinspector/siteinspector - so you can deploy it in Docker or on Heroku to start using it.
