Hello to the Glide community,
I really like Glide and the way it simplifies application development. However, I would like to explore the possibility of using a standalone version of Glide or hosting the platform myself. I think these options would be extremely useful for specific needs in my business and for other users as well.
I’ve submitted this feature request via Feature Requests to highlight this idea. If you agree and see value in these features, I encourage you to support this request by adding your comments and sharing your ideas.
Together we can shape the future of Glide and make the platform even more powerful. Thank you very much for your participation and support!
Sincerely,
Leon Attoh

Or be able to add a self-hosted proxy in a private network, allowing Glide to communicate with internal SQL Databases. That would be great!
Edit: I created a feature request for that case.
