Totally, makes sense.

NocoDB can be run as a single node.js file and it is just SIX lines of code.

https://github.com/nocodb/nocodb-seed/blob/main/index.js

Just mount nocodb into your express.js and it's done.

Could you elaborate more on this? wouldn't require docker if hooking up the middleware into express?

Would this work for a blitzjs/nextjs app?

thx! really cool stuff

Yes, absolutely.

We worked really hard to make it minimal :)

Please give it a quick try with below

   npx create-nocodb-app

ah ok.

Was this on windows ? You might have to start command prompt with administrator privileges. Some of our users ran into these.
