## What it is
Appsmith is an open-source low-code platform for building admin panels, internal tools, and dashboards with drag-and-drop widgets, JavaScript customization, and connections to 25+ databases and any REST/GraphQL API. It can be used via Appsmith Cloud or self-hosted with Docker or Kubernetes, with Git-based version control and enterprise SSO options.

## Use cases
- build an admin panel for my database
- create internal tools without writing frontend code
- build a CRUD dashboard over Postgres and REST APIs
- self-host a low-code app builder
- give non-engineers a way to update internal data
- replace a legacy internal admin app
- build approval workflows and IT automation tools

## When to choose
- you need internal admin panels, dashboards, or CRUD apps quickly
- you want drag-and-drop UI with full JavaScript extensibility
- you need to connect many databases and APIs in one tool
- you want a self-hosted, open-source low-code platform with Git-based CI/CD

## When to avoid
- you need pixel-perfect, highly custom consumer-facing frontends
- your team prefers writing frontend code from scratch in React/Vue
- you need fully offline/air-gapped use on the free community edition
- you want a simple static dashboard without app logic
