Rationale
NocoBase is an open-source, self-hosted, low-code development platform that aligns very well with Retool's core offering. It explicitly states '80% of requirements are achieved through no-code solutions, 20% are implemented through extended development,' indicating strong low-code capabilities. It offers extensive API and database integrations, a visual UI builder, and allows for code customization through plugins. Security features like access control and SSO are present, and it supports flexible deployments. Many 'other' features like debugging, audit logs, workflow automation, and mobile support are also explicitly mentioned or implied through its plugin system.
