AI Supercharged LowCode Platform CMS and Framework

Protofy is a Full-Stack, batteries included Low-Code enabled web/app and IoT system with an API system and real time messaging.

You can use this as a base to fast prototype Apps, webs, IoT systems, automations or APIs. Based on: Protofy (protoflow + visualui + protolib + protodevices) + Expo + Next.js + Tamagui + Solito + Express + Aedes + Redbird + Many other amazing packages

You can think of Protofy as a Wordpress but based in react and javascript and some features from supabase, plus visual widget editors to edit source code inside the admin panel itself and a a visual editor for react pages (wysiwyg).

A ultra-extensible CMS with supercharged capabilities, mobile support and IoT support (esp32 thanks to esphome).
