Re:Show HN: Dropbase 2.0 – Turn offline files into live data... by reportgunner on Tuesday August 18, 2020 @05:20AM (#24196700)
If not I really don't like how it says "offline files".

I can install a database on-prem and upload files to it and then I can too query it as if it was in a database.

From what I've seen on the this seems like a fancy cloud database client.

Good point. We can probably work on clarifying our value prop. You could do something like what you described with a local database. We could add that by building some desktop code. At the moment we are only focused on the cloud part. That way we can get data, let you process it, and also easily share as APIs or endpoints.
