Note
Lowcoder continues from the abandoned Openblocks project. For more information read our manifesto.
Create internal and external software applications for your Company and your Customers with minimal coding experience.
- Connect to any data sources or APIs.
- Build UI with 50+ components.
- Share with colleagues and customers.
It's cumbersome to create a single app. You had to design user interfaces, write code in multiple languages and frameworks, and understand how all of that code works together.
Low-code/No-code platforms are fast to get started with but quickly become unmaintainable and inflexible. This creates more problems than it solves.
NewGen Lowcode Platforms like Retool and others are great for their simplicity and flexibility - like Lowcoder too, but they can also be limited in different ways, especially when it comes to "external" applications for everyone.
Lowcoder wants to take a step forward. More specifically, Lowcoder is:
- An all-in-one IDE to create internal or customer-facing (external) apps.
- A place to create, build and share building blocks of web applications.
- The tool and community to support your business, and lower the cost and time to develop interactive applications.
- The only platform to embed Lowcode Apps natively in Websites (no iFrame!)
- The only platform where you can build your own Meeting Tool - like Teams, Zoom or Google Meets, - just in the Lowcode way.
-
Visual UI builder with 50+ built-in components. Save 90% of time to build apps.
-
Modules for reusable (!) component sets in the UI builder.
-
Embed Lowcoder Apps as native parts of any Website instead of iFrame (!). Demo
-
Video Meeting Components to create your own individual Web-Meeting tool.
-
Query Library for reusable data queries of your data sources.
-
Custom components to develop own components and use them in the UI builder.
-
Native Data connections to PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MySQL, Redis, Elasticsearch, REST API, SMTP, etc.
-
Stream Data connections to Websockets for realtime data updates & collaboration
-
JavaScript supported everywhere to transform data, control components, etc.
-
Role-based access control (RBAC) for granular permission management.
-
Auto-saved and restorable history for release and version control.
-
App Themes and Theme Editor to precisely align with your company's brand guidelines.
-
Self Hosting to use Lowcoder in your internal company network, even behind the firewall.
-
Free Community Cloud to start within a minute and build your first Apps. Start here
- build a Meeting tool with peace in mind. Blue buttons - ok. Red corners or circle Videostream - ok too.
- embedd applications in your Video-Meetings, so attendees can enjoy collaborative "anything". From shopping to working and gaming...
- build a apps way faster than in Power Apps. Save up to 50& of the time at least.
- Use self-hosting to keep all apps and data under your control for example at the own baremetals.
- Lowcoder is open-source. You don't need to worry about vendor lock-in or being stuck with an outdated version of the software.
- In Lowcoder, developers can build truly responsive apps - not as cumbersome as the "Desktop / Mobile switch" in Retool
- Lowcoder is free and you can contribute!
- The EE Version of Lowcoder comes with a much better pricing model, so you have no "per-user costs".

- Lowcoder is modern. The codebase is fresh and uses modern standards.
- Lowcoder Apps do not need a compile and deployment. Just publish and use. Within seconds!
- Lowcoder Apps can get embedded natively in websites and apps, even in mobile apps.
