Free Version Of An Application Generation Technology Via An Open-Source GitHub Repository
We also wanted to introduce a free version of an application generation technology via an open-source GitHub repository. This repository houses a collection of Ruby ERB (Embedded Ruby) templates, which serve as the foundational scaffolding for web applications generated by the Flatlogic platform. Users can define their application specifications on the Flatlogic platform through a UI interface or AI-driven dialogue. This results in a detailed JSON object that encapsulates all application parameters and configurations.
The transformation from JSON to a web application is facilitated by the Flatlogic Generator, which utilizes the ERB templates stored in the GitHub repository. This process involves mapping the JSON-defined parameters and configurations to the corresponding ERB templates, dynamically generating the source code required to build the web application. The generator automates the conversion of ERB files into a fully functional web application, tailored to the specifications defined in the JSON.
To support the free/community version, Flatlogic commits to maintaining the open-source template repository, encouraging contributions from both the company’s developers and the broader developer community. This collaborative approach ensures the repository evolves, incorporating new features, bug fixes, and enhancements. Users and contributors are empowered to fork the repository, propose changes via pull requests, and participate in discussions, fostering an ecosystem of continuous improvement and innovation around the Flatlogic application generation technology.
If you need any assistance or have questions regarding this new feature, please don’t hesitate to contact our support team, which is always ready to help and assist you.
