Maker here. Thank you! I looked briefly at Marimo when building - awesome project. I wasn't sure about building on Pydodide as it's obviously not full Python compatibility. But seeing someone else building a popular project on it

All billing stuff is handled through datafetcher.com. Independent of Airtable so if they cancelled their Airtable they can still cancel on datafetcher.com.

Thanks! Super interesting example. Do you prefer the day to day challenges now or when you were at $40k MRR? I basically look at entrepreneurship as trying to create my perfect job: make $200-500k/ year, work on what I want with smart

Interesting, thanks! Probably not going to charge more any time soon. I'm in the prosumer space, not B2B, and people are more price sensitive than you might expect. Raising prices from $18/mo to $24 has massively reduced support,

Airtable don't have billing for the marketplace so I handle everything, have a direct relationship with customers and pay no cut to Airtable.

People finding bugs - it's a super flexible tool so lots of edge case bugs. Helping people set up their requests (e.g. no-coders who don't totally understand APIs or DF). Then boring stuff like billing queries/refunds etc. I

I coded it manually as the business logic is so Data Fetcher specific I don't think a library would help much. This blog post does an amazing job of explaining the approach you need: https://blog.checklyhq.com/building-
