2 open-source projects that already do this job. Free to use - not free to run, which is what the numbers on the right are for.

What you give up either way
- polish and production UX of Bubble's editor
- broad third-party integrations and plugin marketplace
- scale, uptime guarantees, and multi-tenant operational maturity
- enterprise features (teams, roles, billing, advanced data connectors)
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches Bubble, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
