Alex Hoyau@lemmy.mlOPtoOpen Source@lemmy.ml•Silex Desktop — new Open Source No-Code project
2·
3 days agoThat’s a great question, here’s how I see it:
- Silex = websites and web design — strong focus on responsive layouts, CSS concepts, box model, etc. No workflows or app logic
- Bring your own CMS/DB — pure frontend; users design and bind to real data (read-only)
- Web standards first — HTML/CSS; what you learn is portable. If you know a standard, you can probably apply it directly in Silex
- Fully open source, FOSS, AGPL, not open core like Appsmith/Budibase
It’s not necessarily easier — the complexity just lives elsewhere :)
Nice thx I didn’t know this trick Updated the post
