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.
The ability to take any database and create an API and admin console for it has opened endless possibilities.
The most interesting part of Directus is that it has a clear roadmap toward its development, and most of the time the targets are met ahead of the schedule. I'm looking forward to the ability of migrating between Directus Cloud and On-premise installation.
I love Directus! I've been working with it for nearly a year and a half now, and I don't plan to use anything else anytime soon. I actively contribute to the system because I love what they're doing, I love that it's free, and I love the community. Directus cloud takes the amazing product the team has built and pushes it one step further. It's probably the least restrictive web-based data management system you'll find, and being able to run up an instance in a matter of minutes makes things so much easier when you just need to test something small. Of course, no software is perfect. Directus has its flaws, its bugs, but the team works swift and diligently to fix what's broken and keep everything running smoothly. It's a growing product, adding new features, fixes, and improvements every week. They listen to the needs of their community and cater the app to the people who actually use it. But you don't need to take my word for it. You can literally sign up for Directus Cloud and test it out in less than 5 minutes, without any payment information at all. Maybe it's not for you, that's okay. What's great is they give you the tools to quickly figure that out for yourself. So why not give it a shot?
So easy to use that you van use it right away and become expert with its wonderful documentation
Hi Folks, I started exploring Directus last week and my initial impression is good. Especially content creation and data management as the UI is intuitive. Now the developers can think about data as pure content instead of struggling with technical skills like Database/Keys/Joins/relationships etc. The one feature I would like to see is, exposing the database connection string from Standard cloud onwards. So that it offers seamless connectivity with other tools in the Jam Stack world. Finally, congratulations to all the developers who worked hard in creating the product. Best of luck for future releases. Thanks Venkata Penumatsa
The easiest and safest way to build an api server for cloud systems.
