Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
Most entries and the README are in Chinese, so non Chinese readers will need translation help.
awesome-lowcode is a curated list, sometimes called an awesome list on GitHub, of low-code and no-code platforms used in China. The repository description, written in Chinese, says it is a place where people working with domestic low-code platforms exchange information. There is no code in the repository, only a long set of links organised under headings. Low-code means a software platform where you build applications mostly by configuring forms, dragging components onto a canvas, and connecting them, rather than writing every line by hand. No-code goes further and aims to remove programming altogether for end users. The README groups projects by category, starting with full-stack platforms, then page builders that focus only on the front end. The full-stack section lists offerings from big Chinese technology companies, including Alibaba's Yunfengdie, Tianma, Yida, and an open source engine called lowcode-engine. It also covers Tencent's Jimu and lowcode platforms, Kingdee Cangqiong, NetEase CodeWave, and Huawei OpenTiny TinyEngine. Alongside these are dozens of independent vendors such as Mingdao, Jiandaoyun, Qingflow, Aurora, Authine, Hancode for industrial use, Yao, Appsmith, ILLA Cloud, and many more. Each entry has links to the product website and often to blog posts, technical write-ups, or company news that explain how it was built or how it is positioned. The page-building section narrows the focus to front-end-only tools, including MAKA, Eqxiu, Sxl, Rabbitpre, Gaoding, Yiban, Chuangkit, H5ds, the open source Chameleon Engine, Tencent's tmagic-editor, JD's Tongtianta, Alibaba's imgcook, Zhuanzhuan's Mofang, Renrendai's activity platform, and Meituan Lego. Several entries link to articles where engineering teams describe how they designed their visual building tools. For a non-technical reader, this repository is best understood as a reading list. It does not provide software to download. It is useful if you want to survey what low-code looks like in the Chinese market, compare commercial vendors against open source projects, or read first-hand accounts from teams that built page builders inside large companies.
Curated awesome list of low-code and no-code platforms in the Chinese market, grouped into full-stack platforms and front-end page builders, with links to vendor sites and engineering write-ups.
Setup difficulty is rated easy, with roughly 5min to a first successful run.
