Overview
Windmill is a powerful open-source developer platform for building internal tools, APIs, background jobs, and workflows. It serves as a self-hostable alternative to Retool, Pipedream, and Superblocks. Scripts written in Python, TypeScript, Go, Bash, and more are turned into sharable UIs automatically, and can be composed into flows or used in richer low-code apps. With 17k+ GitHub stars, AGPLv3 licensing, and full Docker support via GHCR, Windmill is a complete platform for automating your infrastructure.
