Xano Development for Desktop

I'd like a Xano Desktop Application that enhances development capabilities and allows visibility into more parts at one time.

I am thinking about industry tools that have made an impact with both a web and desktop applications. Figma. for example, has both web and desktop applications.

For simple tasks, I can live with a simple function view with panes in a browser window, but for complex tasks I would like visibility into more data points.

Views I often want to look at side by side:

  • Function logic alongside the database

  • Function logic alongside example outputs from an API

  • Two functions side by side

  • The debug screen with Lambda Code

When I approach a project with pure code, I usually have a code editor (like Visual Studio Code), a terminal with console output for requests, code linting, and a database tool (like DataGrip) open at the same time. Tools, like Postman, for testing and exploring new APIs for my applications.

It seems a Desktop Application for Xano could be the next step to recreating a developer-like experience with the no/low code touch. A Desktop Application can optionally allow more or less information based on a person's experience or preferences.
