# Lowcoder Manifesto
2+
3+
Dear Community,
4+
5+
We are excited to announce a new initiative to support and extend Openblocks, which unfortunately has been abandoned by its original team. Openblocks has been a critical part of many of our workflows, and we believe it's essential to keep it alive and thriving.
6+
7+
We have come together out of a shared passion for the project and a commitment to providing a toolchain that allows you to create apps blazingly fast using a simple, intuitive UI. We are dedicated to continuing the project's legacy under a new name, Lowcoder.
8+
9+
To provide continuous support to all members of the community, we have decided to form two individual teams:
10+
11+
_Lowcoder.org_ will remain fully open source, accessible to all, and free from any restrictions or limitations. As part of our commitment to the community, we will take over all maintenance, bug fixes, and feature development. We plan to prioritize stability and reliability while also introducing new features and enhancements to keep pace with evolving technology. We will maintain open communication channels, seek feedback, and actively engage with users and contributors to ensure that Lowcoder remains relevant and useful to all. We will be transparent about our development roadmap, progress, and any challenges that arise.
12+
13+
_Lowcoder.cloud_ will actively develop and maintain the enterprise version and provide a managed cloud offering using both the latest Lowcoder.org version and the proprietary Enterprise version.
14+
15+
The two teams will collaborate and support each other, focusing on a long-term partnership to ensure a healthy product and community.
16+
17+
We invite all members of the community to join us on this journey. Whether you are a user, contributor, or enterprise customer, your input and support are critical to the success of Lowcoder. Let's work together to keep this project alive and thriving for many years to come.
18+
19+
Sincerely,
20+
The Lowcoder Team

## 💡 Why Openblocks
20+
## 💡 Why Lowcoder
1821
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.
1922

2023
Low-code/No-code platforms are fast to get started with but quickly become unmaintainable and inflexible. This creates more problems than it solves.
2124

2225
Retool-like solutions are great for their simplicity and flexibility, but they can also be limited in different ways compared to frameworks like React/Vue.
