Origin Story

By Abhishek Nayak & Arpit Mohan

The Problem

Every company builds the same internal tools over and over — admin panels, dashboards, CRUD apps. It's repetitive work that developers shouldn't have to do from scratch.

Building It

Launched in 2020. Grew to 30K+ GitHub stars. Active open-source community contributing widgets and integrations.

What It Means

Internal tools should be built in hours, not weeks. Open source means no vendor lock-in for critical internal infrastructure.

The Dream

To eliminate the need for any developer to build internal tools from scratch ever again.
