For solo developers and small teams

Ship custom CRUD apps without rebuilding the boring parts every time.

Meta-App gives you a stable PHP/SQLite base for forms, lists, roles, imports, reports, templates, rules, and dashboards, while still leaving room for normal custom code.

Good fit when you build client-specific tools.

Many internal apps are not giant SaaS products. They are practical systems for one business: records, approvals, reminders, billing, renewals, reporting, and edge cases.

You keep control

No heavy build chain, no forced cloud stack, no black-box generator. Start from a working app, define the domain, then extend with overrides and workflows when the client needs something special.

Not a public download today: the framework currently powers client projects we build directly. If you're a developer or small studio interested in working together on a client build, get in touch — a public release is a longer-term direction, not the current offer.

Reusable foundation

Authentication, roles, CRUD, imports, exports, audit, backups, saved views, and admin screens are already there.

Low-code where it helps

Fields, tokens, computed values, rules, loops, saved queries, and displays reduce repetitive PHP.

Custom code when needed

Entity overrides and workflow routes handle the real business exceptions that pure builders usually struggle with.

Developer conversation

Bring one app you build repeatedly.

We can map which parts become metadata, which become rules, and which should stay custom code.
