Hey everyone!
We just released a new tutorial that walks through building a full-stack CRM app with Python and connecting it to a MongoDB Atlas database.
It takes about 17 minutes from start to finish. Check it out and let us know what you think.

Quick question? Why not use Anvil data tables? Is MongoDB Atlas better option for CRM?

@Harry_Python Not necessarily! Some people already have data in an external database like MongoDB, and they just want to build an app on top of their existing data instead of migrating everything over.
