What it does

undb is an open-source no-code database that can also operate as a Backend as a Service. It uses SQLite and provides a UI for table management, formula fields compatible with Excel/Airtable-style calculations, and built-in playground mode. Documented views include kanban, gallery, calendar, pivot, and forms, with OpenAPI RESTful API support.

The product is designed for private, local-first deployment. Users can run it as a Bun-packaged binary, launch it with Docker, use Docker Compose for development, or deploy it on Render.com. The README also provides a hosted undb cloud option and supports persistent local storage through a Docker volume.
