I'm completely baffled! I'm developing a similar client/server application with the exact same name aswell! But I chose different technologies as nwjs and vuejs for the client and php7 for the server side.
Well I guess, I have to rename my project before publishing it :D
You should know that by using Materia, you have agreed to it's EULA that explicitly says that you cannot create any similar product in terms of look and functionality.
"Copy any features, functions or user interfaces of the Products;"
Can such an EULA even be remotely binding? Especially in the light of the fact that the OP notes that he had independently developed a very similar product, and there are a lot of ? What is so unique in this product that similar features in another application could be proven to be copying?
It would depend on where the EULA was accepted and which country the developer is from. If it's the US, I bet the person with the deepest pockets would win in court (or settle). If it's in the EU, there are already a ton of patents about visually binding SQL - the biggest being Oracle.
You raised my hopes and dashed them quite expertly, sir. Bravo!
Not to get off on a rant here, but it is annoying when developer tools are posted here without a mention that it's not available for an OS developers here may be using. Doubly so when there's a Linux download link that just does nothing.
I Like the UI, it is time for dev tools to start looking like they're used by adults instead of typically looking like the video game screen of a teenager.
As a developer of web dev tools (crudzilla.com), I am biased towards tools built in the browser though. You probably get better performance natively but I think you make up for that with all the other things the browser offers, especially for web development. my 2 cent :)
Hopefully a backend that lets me stay in my own environment and don't oblige me to code on THEIR hosted cloud platform.
I like the WYSIWYG approach, as far as I tried it seems not limited like classic wysiwyg interfaces.
You guys should open source to have the full community behind you to make the Parse that Parse should have been. Easy to use, Open, community driven and deployable anywhere.
I've been waiting for a service like this! I was just thinking about this yesterday.
In my mind I wanted to set up a database in the cloud using MS Access (my favorite database set up tool), and then set up the queries, and have something else deal with authentication.
I feel there must be some competition. Anyone know what that might be?
I'm not sure if it helps, but there are some Bootstrap site designer IDEs which may help with what you need.
Pingendo (free) [www.pingendo.com]
Bootstrap Studio ($25) [www.bootstrapstudio.io]
The discussion for Bootstrap Studio on HN had some alternatives discussed [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12456335]
I really enjoyed going through the quickstart. It doubles as a really great teaching tool for people coming from front-end and design. It made a lot of data modeling concepts stick.
There are some bugs here and there, but keep up the good work!
This looks great. I've been playing around with Elm, but one thing that's held me back is getting a quick back-end set up.
I think this could probably help with that. I'll definitely be playing around with this at some point. It looks great and the small animations do a great job of illustrating how things work.
