Review:

Although it's an incredible tool, I'm ranking Glide 4/5 entirely out of spite.

They used to be my go-to tool for prototyping new apps.

They were extremely generous with their pricing tiers, and especially their free plan.

You could publish and share unlimited apps to unlimited users.

Now you can publish one app for $25 per month.

That's a fair price, if you look at the rest of the market, sure.

But they were one of the most accessible tools out there, and now they're not.

Other than that, they're a great tool. You can build beautiful web apps, with databases on google sheets, and built-in automations.

They aren't the most customizable, but everything you make looks great out of the box, and you do get some design control.

Because of the price limitation, if you're on a budget, I'd only recommend them for prototyping.
