You want to talk about a very unsexy way to build CRUD apps fast, go look at Salesforce. Boy, do I hate developing on their platform, but it is a pretty damn quick way to build CRUD apps, as long as you're fine paying $100 per user per month.

And if you want something open source which you can install on your own machines, Odoo[1] is a nice alternative (disclaimer: I work for a partner company). It works in a similar way; you just define the model with its fields (as a Python class), add a view where you just indicate which fields to expose and where, and then a menu entry to point to that model, and done! You can even skip the view if you don't mind it generating a basic one for you.

That is a remarkable suite of tools available, and all for free. I'm surprised I haven't heard of it before, but I'll certainly be looking into it. Thanks for the tip!
