Retool's job, self-hosted: ToolJet is an open-source low-code platform for building internal tools, dashboards, and admin panels. Apps are assembled in a drag-and-drop visual builder with 60+ responsive components, including tables, charts, forms, and lists, and connected to 80+ data sources: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, REST and GraphQL APIs, cloud storage, and common SaaS tools. When visual configuration is not enough, you can run JavaScript or Python inline for queries and transformations. A built-in no-code database (ToolJet Database) covers apps that need their own tables without provisioning an external database, Workflows add node-based automation for background jobs with dedicated worker containers and a Redis-backed queue, and multi-page apps with multiplayer editing, inline comments, and mentions support team development. Security is designed for internal data: credentials are AES-256-GCM encrypted, data flows proxy-only through your server so database contents never reach a third-party cloud, and granular per-app access control plus SSO gate each tool. Where Retool-style platforms bill per builder and sometimes per end user, the self-hosted Community Edition serves unlimited builders and users at hosting cost, and full source availability means the platform itself can be forked, audited, and extended. The stack is Node.js and React on PostgreSQL, deployed via Docker.

ILLA Builder turns internal tool development from weeks of custom frontend work into hours of drag-and-drop assembly, combining a visual canvas of 60+ UI components with direct connections to over 20 data sources. The TypeScript frontend, powered by ILLA Design, offers data grids backed by MUI X Data Grid Premium, charts, forms, rich-text editors, PDF viewers, QR code scanners, calendar widgets, map embeds, and video players. Each component supports Handlebars-style expression bindings that reference query results, widget state, or global variables, while the reactive execution tree resolves dependencies in topological order and re-evaluates downstream properties whenever upstream values change. Data connectors provide GUI-driven access to PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, MSSQL, Supabase, Redis, Firebase, CouchDB, Airtable, Google Sheets, Stripe, AWS S3, Hugging Face models, and REST or GraphQL endpoints without writing connector code. Real-time collaboration through WebSocket lets multiple developers edit the same application simultaneously with live cursor tracking and synchronized Redux state. ILLA Flow adds workflow automation triggered by schedules or webhooks, chaining actions across data sources. The Go backend handles application state, resources, and attribute-based access control using PostgreSQL for persistence, Redis for caching, MinIO for file storage, and Envoy for API ingress. Deploys as a single Docker container on port 2022 or scales horizontally on Kubernetes. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache 2.0 licensed.
