Retool Raises $50M from Sequoia

That's exactly why we built appsmith. A company's core tech stack should be built on open source technology so you're never held hostage by proprietary software. https://github.com/appsmithorg/appsmith

Ahhh so that's what Retool is. Your page does a much better job of explaining what these things are. And it looks like an interesting project - good luck!

Interesting project.

1. How soon will you announce pricing?

2. In terms of feature parity, how close are you to matching Retool?

thanks! 1. We'll announce pricing in 6-9 months, our project opened for beta 2 months ago 2. We are about 6 months away from feature parity, maybe even quicker if we can attract more contributors :)

I took a look as a potential contributor and noticed from spot checking it seems like bug fixes are getting merged without tests, which deters me from contributing to a project personally. Looks really cool, though!

Josh, thats a fair point. We merged a few fixes recently to quickly get rid of some bugs. We need to get stricter with our automated testing processes.
