Hi,
I am looking to develop a site data capture app using retool. Was after a strategy on how to connect the two together. Also if anyone has done it before, what to watch out for.
Cheers,
Hoff

Hello
I am considering a similar idea using directus ( also a low code tool but more open, not sure if it’s considered open source or source available) for the backend. It can connect to speckle as an app with oauth2 so users can use the speckle login to access the app.
Also I want to build a flutter app for it as well for site engineers to collect data and write reports and then connect it to the data model in speckle using the comments feature.
I plan to also add some team and project management features to it.
Would this be a project that is useful to speckle? Should I try to build a demo maybe. I’m not sure what kind of challenges I might face but I am interested in this idea.

That sounds like an exciting demo. There are many ways to contribute to Speckle, not just with Speckle code repos. Sharing developer journeys and showcasing your wins is a big part of the Speckle community! 
Hey @TheHoff, we’ve already talked about Retool iFrames for viewing models, other than that you can use their GraphQL resource to query Speckle.
What do you mean by site capture? A form? Or are you thinking more 3D-scanning?
I’ve previously experimented with updating Speckle models with data from Retool (tagging a window in a Speckle model as “installed” for example).
