Episode notes

Retool is an application development platform that speeds up internal tool building by combining traditional software development with a user-friendly UI editor and AI, ensuring secure, reliable, and easily shareable tools. On the other hand, an API gateway simplifies the process of building and securing APIs by handling infrastructure aspects like security, governance, access control, and rate limits, allowing developers to focus on business logic and API functionality.
