It’s a way to build free Dabble databases under a Creative Commons license. Functionally, it’s the same as our paid service except that data you keep in a free application is publicly accessible.
- Anyone can see your data and the structure of your application.
- Data will be indexed by search engines like Google.
- If you create a really useful or innovative application, it might be featured on the site.
We’ll keep all of your personal details private, and you have full control over who can modify the application and data, as well as how the data may be used by others.
IS IT REALLY FREE FOREVER?
Yep. Really.
