i only skimmed the home page, but it seems far too opinionated for general use. if you're starting fresh and plan to use tremor as your all-encompassing ui kit, it seems fine. but at that point, why not grafana, retool, or some other no-to-low-code dashboard solution?

It is fine for a quick one off project, but if you're going to depend on anything over the long term, you have to be able to upgrade it. Especially in JS land where things change almost weekly. 99% of my releases have been simply about dealing with changes of dependencies. I wouldn't be confident to do a release if I didn't have a test suite.
You're right on the point of using another low code solution though... it still opens you up to dependency issues. You might also want this as a product with its own skinned UX/UI that you have full control over. Third party 'commercial' products won't always give that to you.
