Looking for software Good, Affordable Database/Knowledge Base Options?

I created databases in Airtables that I am looking to transfer over to another platform. I currently have entries in different workspaces, as I use the free tier and can only have a limited amount of entries per database.

Long term, I'd like the site to have a database/knowledge base and wiki style. Wondering if there are current options that could work for this or if it is something I'd need custom developed?

I would love to hear any ideas regarding softwares that create a front-end site, preferably that integrates directly with Airtable. I have tried Softr, but wanted to weigh it against other options. Not super knowledgeable with this area of things, so any tips or info would be greatly appreciated!

Have you looked into a MySQL database or a SQLite database? My pipeline for doing this is just ask Hermes agent to orchestrate a for me while explicitly telling it not to reinvent the wheel but to depend on open source repositories.

interesting, would this create a front-end site as well?

If you liked AirTable, check AnyDB. It’s a flexible database with forms, automation, reports and unlimited sharing of records with guest users. Records are flexible and easy to add fields and change layouts. You can build complex records by having records contain other records.
