Show HN: Runnable – Build user-facing internal workflows without writing UI code (getrunnable.com)

12 points by mscolnick ↗ HN
Would love to share a new open-source project I've been working on - Runnable.

Runnable is a framework to build user-facing admin-like workflows with ease, while keeping operations internal. No need to setup REST or GraphQL for internal applications.

There are other similar tools out there that have comparable features, but Runnable is fully open-source and is much easier to set up (due to its simplicity). For example, it does not require a DB or even it's own server. There is an option to use Runnable as a library or as a standalone web-socket server.

Site here: https://getrunnable.com/

You can demo Runnable here https://demo.getrunnable.com/admin/login and login with any Google creds.

Open to feedback and feature requests.

Nice! (Full disclosure, I work with the author) I'm super glad you published this :) We've been using this where I work for about 6 months, and it's been super helpful. It's insanely fast to build, deliver, and modify admin workflows for our ops team.

It's surprisingly flexible, so we don't actually build out custom workflows in our main app unless they're either 1) very complex (think interactive sales pipeline), or 2) we've iterated on them in Runnable and want to pull them into the main UI.

Again, nice work!

Runnable has one of the most beautiful APIs I’ve seen — everything is very carefully designed from the users perspective to make it as easy as possible. At the same time very flexible and powerful.
