I’d like to stay as close as possible to the original baserow, and i’ll be upfront to my users that the product is built on baserow.

I’m not yet completely clear on whether I’ll be able to use official baserow distribution and simply “overlay” my changes on top of that as a plugin, or whether i’ll have to fork the baserow respository for my project.do I need to pay any licensing fees to write and deploy this concept I have in mind ? I know baserow is open source, but i’m planning on creating a commercial, paid product.They are used to the concept of sharing spreadsheets, but with baserow they’ll have to create a workspace for each new person they want to interact with. My users will in large part come from google sheets (a number of online language teachers use google sheets for note taking). i’m wondering whether the concept of “workspaces” and “databases” will make sense to my users.

Here are the things i’m not yet sure about: Every table will automatically get a new webhook added to hook into the language processing logic. Technically, i’ll be adding new field types to support the “enrichments” (transliteration / translation / audio). There will be a way to add auto-generated translations into another language, or transliteration (for languages which don’t use latin alphabet, such as Chinese, such as transliteration into Pinyin), and text to speech functionality. Teachers and students will connect together on the same database and will collaboratively edit tables. My goal is to make this open source and of course completely open in part thanks to Baserow’s strong API orientation. One of the use cases will be note-taking for online language lessons, with automatic translation / transliteration and audio text to speech. I believe Baserow is the right environment for my next app.

I have written Anki addons and google sheets extensions. My niche is building language learning apps.
