Awesome design! and BIG Wow for the Nuxt.js code structure looks really professional and well made. It's also good to see it's made with Nuxt/Vue.js 💪🏻. So good luck guys! I'll test and use it. 👌🏻✌️

I used directus extensively even from the time it was still a PHP project. Its one of the most customisable and powerful CRMs even then. We ran our entire internationalisation framework for multiple muti-platform android/ios apps with thousands of users and customers. All tenanted with different deployments for each agency customer. It was wicked. And that was then! Since they've come such a long way and have only got better! And the node refactor came at just the right time. Tidal shifts in usability speed and features. Love the product yall.

Super useful as an admin panel or API engine, both use cases worked very well for me

I have waited years for a proper backend solution/framework (with the possibility for low-code/rapid dev) that would support a variety of use cases from small businesses to enterprise-level requirements. You can use it as CMS, a rapid low code tool, or as your backend framework.

We use Directus extensively in our company as a UI to our database. The refined visual esthetic makes us backend/database devs look like champs.

Directus is a backend toolkit that allows you to cut your time to launch a website, app, or whatever you're building in half (or more).

Quickest and smoothest way to get API's on a database within a few minutes, and for the non tech folks like me - a full studio app to manage, edit, and visualize all my data with a nice UI. Aka - I've been able to build a website, mobile app, and SMS texting system (using Twilio API) for a fully functioning app.

Just started testing this out. Seems very promising. Though, it does abstract the database away a little too much. As a developer, and someone that knows Postgres pretty well, having to choose weird field types like "Input" or "Dropdown", obstructs development a little.
