• Show HN: Retool AI

  Founder @ https://airplane.dev here - putting in a shameless plug for Airplane, where you _do_ write code from scratch. :) I think it depends on the builder and use case, and it's not a fit for everything, but our users like / need to manage their tooling as code and are more productive for it. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Windmill: Open-source developer platform to turn scripts into workflows and UIs

  I have been following this space for really long time. I think closest competitor is Airplane.dev [1].

• YC: Requests for Startups

  I submitted an application for w24 that fits in the "Developer tools inspired by existing internal tools" category but wasn't accepted. I suspect my pitch probably needed work, and I also haven't started building at all yet and submitted as a solo-founder which it seems has less chance of being accepted.
