It's been several years since I have looked at APEX, but my
recollection was that it relied heavily on Oracle packages and
functions, and the few attempts I saw towards porting any of that to
Postgres were abandoned pretty quickly. This generally resulted in
most migrations becoming full-on rewrites into a new platform. Once
you've given that up, its most a matter of finding a new platform that
you want to work with... most of the companies I worked with moved to
things like django or rails, but I suspect something like budibase
and/or similar alternatives might be more what you are angling
towards. Hope that helps.
