## What it is
Alibaba's enterprise-class low-code engine for building visual page-building and app-development platforms. It provides an extensible editor core with a plugin system, out-of-the-box designer capabilities, and a protocol for describing low-code page schemas.

## Use cases
- build a custom low-code platform for my company
- embed a drag-and-drop page designer into an existing web app
- let non-developers assemble UI pages visually
- create an extensible visual editor with plugins
- generate pages from low-code schemas
- white-label app builder for enterprise users

## When to choose
- you need a full-featured, extensible low-code editor core rather than a finished product
- you want to build your own visual page builder on a proven enterprise stack
- you need a plugin architecture and schema protocol for low-code tooling

## When to avoid
- you want a ready-to-use low-code app builder with no development effort
- your project is a small static site or simple form builder
- you need a backend-only or mobile-native low-code solution
