-It's been over a year since we released the first version of Toolpad. Today, we're excited to take the next step on that journey with the release of Toolpad Beta. If you aren't familiar with Toolpad yet, it's an admin panel builder catering to the internal tooling needs of an organization, designed for developers who want to build a functional application quickly. It harnesses the speed of a UI builder for the front-end and closely integrates into your back-end. If this excites you, then read on!

 ## Why did we decide to build Toolpad?
 
-Toolpad was created to meet the needs of the Material UI community. As a result of surveys we conducted, and market research we undertook, we decided to develop an internal tool builder because the idea resonates with MUI's mission of empowering developers to build apps faster and more efficiently.

 Internal tools are software applications that are developed and used within an organization itself. They can automate tasks, manage data, and help foster collaboration. Internal tools are a valuable asset for businesses of all sizes, as they help to improve efficiency, productivity, and communication.

 Toolpad is not ideal for building static web pages, mobile apps, or customer-facing custom-designed front-ends. It's for building admin applications, CRUD interfaces, custom internal tools, and analytics dashboards.

 ## Who is Toolpad for?
 
 Before the arrival of Toolpad, the MUI organization primarily catered to the front-end needs of the development process. Our products were mostly useful for React engineers or designers, but we saw many full-stack engineers use our advanced components for data-intensive apps. These highly customizable components are well-suited for complex apps, but not all apps require the same level of customization: for example, internal tools just need basic theming.

-Toolpad is for you if you're a full-stack or back-end developers who builds, manages, and integrate data pipelines, server-side logic, databases, microservices, and APIs—and knows the most about them. Sharing these endpoints with and maintaining the internal documentation for the front-end teams is a hassle that lasts forever. Toolpad empowers you to take the next step and build the UI you need using our drag-and-drop editor, without losing any part of your normal development workflow.

 ## How is Toolpad different from similar products on the market?
 
 In this domain, there are two categories of products:
 
-1. **Visual first**: Retool, Appsmith, Budibase and the likes. While these are great tools, they don't integrate with the developer's local IDE nor offer a good git version control mechanism. Providing features that could have been hand-coded on a need basis makes the application heavy, and reports of slowness at runtime are common.

-2. **Code first**: Airplane.dev, Interval and others. They also allow building internal tools but don't support a drag-and-drop UI builder. The components must be coded using their APIs, which comes with some learning curve.

-Toolpad is solely focused on professional developers. As much as we are low-code, we are equally code-friendly. Providing the basic functionality that you expect from an open-source tool is non-negotiable for us—we will always prioritize your best interests over all else. With nearly a decade of experience building developer tools, we understand the long-term benefits of cultivating a close relationship with our community of users.

 Lastly, Toolpad is the only product that offers a drag-and-drop UI builder closely integrated with your favorite IDE, such as VSCode. It's the best of both worlds!
