| Something that might be cool is also identifying the schemas and
| the ranges. You would probably be able to automatically generate
| some of these blocks. You could use something like this:

| With enough data, you could probably further automate this
| process with AI. Good luck! Feel free to reach out for ideas or
| anything.

| Hey! this is Moritz. one of the creators of datablocks. the
| project is in a very early stage and more like a showcase right
| now. If you have any feedback, please let me know :) It's very
| valuable for us. We open sourced the underlying library for
| creating the flows. It's called react flow
| https://reactflow.dev/. The backend is built with nhost and we
| can really recommend it -> https://nhost.io/! Thanks for the nice
| words here :)
