Hey patrickaljord - it's a great question. 8base and the tools you mentioned meet at very similar cross-roads, we all take VERY different paths to get there. I think what notably sets us apart is the developer experience in defining data-model/roles/permissions/authentication/etc. through the management console. Also, 8base being a service that's production-ready as soon as you click "Create Workspace" is a big difference. I'd love for you to try building a little experimental app on 8base, and hearing what you think are the differences/similarities :slightly_smiling_face: let me know if you're interested. Thanks, Albert.
