Table of contents
Baserow is an open source online database tool. Users can use this no-code platform to create a database without any technical experience. It lowers the threshold to a level where everyone who can work with a spreadsheet can also create a database. The interface looks a lot like a spreadsheet. Our goal is to provide a perfect and fast user experience while keeping it easy for developers to write plugins and maintain the codebase. The developer documentation contains several topics you might need as a developer.
