## What it is
undb is a private-first, self-hosted no-code database platform that also functions as a Backend as a Service (BaaS). Built on SQLite with a SvelteKit UI, it can run as a single binary via Bun or be deployed with Docker, offering table management, formula fields, and a RESTful OpenAPI.

## Use cases
- self-host an airtable alternative
- build a no-code database for my team
- use a backend as a service without writing backend code
- manage tables with a spreadsheet-like UI
- expose a REST API over a no-code database
- run a private offline-first database locally
- create forms, kanban boards, and calendars from database tables

## When to choose
- you want a private, self-hosted Airtable alternative
- you need a lightweight BaaS backed by SQLite that can run as a single binary
- you want no-code table management with formula fields and multiple views
- you prefer offline-first tools with Docker deployment

## When to avoid
- you need a multi-user, horizontally scalable cloud database with heavy concurrency
- you require a database other than SQLite
- you need a fully managed hosted solution with enterprise support
- you want deep programmatic backend customization beyond the provided OpenAPI
