I also participate in two other Google hosted communities, for Firebase Studio and Antigravity. This community is different in that it is an actual source of help, rather than merely a place to complain. Keep it up, everyone!

The disappointing part, though, is that Google staff are similarly unengaged in all three. But AppSheet’s is still the better, thanks to the likes of @Jose_Arteaga and @Adam-google. Your participation is greatly appreciated!

Agreed.
I’m a relative dumb-a*s without much knowledge but this community has helped me build something that is truly useful/productive/of worth that is seemingly giving me a longer-term business [income].
I don’t need to come here too often now but when I do the response has always been quick and very helpful.

I have nothing else better than to say Appreciate too all of you for bringing life to this community. Despite of lots of people have moved to other frameworks but Im staying and for me AppSheet and AppSheet’s community is still unreplaceable.
A sincere thank you from Vietnam.

I’m officially shifting all my legacy projects over to AI-powered development. From now on, it’s 100% vibecoding.
No more AppSheet projects—at least until Google makes a serious upgrade that actually turns it into a powerful, competitive platform.

I would ONLY recommend this for app creators with a strong software development background. There are SO MANY risks in developing your own app. Without a strong skill set, no level of AI assistance will protect you from those risks.

I agree. Currently, at this stage, AI-vibe coding can’t produce a well-developed program or software on a large scale. Cloudflare and AWS have also experienced outages due to AI-vibe coding, I believe, and Google has also in some areas.
I have also seen people using AI to create complex formulas in AppSheet with insufficient context, which results in long, overdone formulas without utilizing the related columns. However, in most cases, the scale is too small for the impact on performance to be noticeable. The motto here is often: “I dont care, so long it works”. But its just leaving a technical debt behind. Sigh….

This is some insightful discussion about AI.
However I believe @Steve started the post thread with a different intention of community appreciation. @hien_nguyen introduced a detour to the original topic. 
Of course discussion of AI is very important. However for better grouping or channelization of the AI discussion, a polite suggestion that we community members can contribute to the following interesting post thread. The following post thread is developing into a first hand experience of esteemed community members on AI.

That’s right.
I think that, following Steve’s point, anyone that has been here for at least some couple of years really gets how connected the community is, more so people like Steve that also saw things from the other side instead of just as customers of the AppSheet ecosystem.
We should do our best to keep that same environment going no matter where things go in the future

I would never have gotten as far as I did with my own apps if not for the folks here. I’ve created some pretty incredible stuff as a novice.
