I used to use Hex but Marimo (OSS local first) honestly renders it completely obsolete for me

It similarly offers the combo of SQL and dataframes, built in dataviz and UI widgets, great LLM integration and essentially everything else one would want from either a notebook or a BI tool

gonzalohm•29m ago
How do you share a dashboard built in Marimo with someone that doesn't have any coding experience (for example someone from marketing) Can you host it somewhere?
akshayka•23m ago
You can self-host marimohub (BYO compute, object storage, auth, managed AI, etc)

Fascinating. We used to use it quite a bit. But nowadays its just claude + skills.

I liked Hex. I introduced it to my company and now it's become the main BI tool.

However, since they started pushing the whole AI thing I no longer like them.

It may speed up doing analytics, but makes everything hard to maintain, creates a ton of duplication and it adds yet another layer to take care of.

I also think AI may come back to bite them in the ass. What's the point of an analytics platform is you can create dashboards from scratch directly using AI. What are they adding to the table?

They should have stuck to just making developers live easier instead of trying to make analytics accessible for everyone

We built a much simpler alternative to this over complicated mess that is Hex.

If you're interested in using it, you can 1-click deploy.

Downvote me if you want, I'm flaunting the guidelines in service of the discourse.

If I may posthumously discipline the horse - when did the suffixes "-native" and "-first" merge in unholy matrimony?

Was it when B2B marketing realized that engineers equated "native" with "best/fastest/simplest solution available"? Or is it even more stupid than that?
