Rationale

Budibase is an open-source low-code platform that directly competes with Retool. It explicitly states its ability to connect to various databases and REST APIs, offers a drag-and-drop UI builder with pre-made components, allows for code customization, supports flexible deployments (Docker, K8s, Cloud), and includes workflow automation. While security features are mentioned generally, specific details like RBAC or SSO are not as clearly outlined as in the Retool description, but the platform's nature implies a level of access control.
