ValTown is pretty great.

"Not no code", just code."

When you're programming in the small, a lot of the architectural challenges of writing code fade away.

You don't use ValTown because of its framework; you use it because of the convenience to write useful bits of software in the small, and its opinionated, slightly magical framework is worth it to get access to that environment.

From constraints comes power.

What if you could write little Vals that would run on your most sensitive data?
