## What it is
Tango is a code-driven low-code builder framework from NetEase that lets you develop low-code applications directly on your existing codebase. It works on source code ASTs with no private DSL, providing real-time code generation (source code in, source code out) and out-of-the-box React designer components.

## Use cases
- build a low-code app builder on top of an existing codebase
- create a drag-and-drop visual designer for React apps
- switch between visual editing and source code views
- build internal app builders or dashboard builders
- build an email template designer
- build a ReactNative app builder

## When to choose
- you want low-code capabilities without a proprietary DSL or protocol lock-in
- you need visual editing that outputs real, readable source code
- you want to embed a designer into your own low-code platform or dev tools
- you prefer a TypeScript framework with complete type definitions

## When to avoid
- you need a standalone no-code website builder for non-developers
- your stack is not React/TypeScript based
- you need a mature turnkey product rather than a framework to build on
- you must support legacy browsers older than Chrome/Edge 80

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
- maturity: active
- function: frontend-framework, ui-components, developer-tools, parser
- domain: web-development, frontend, developer-tools
- platform: browser
- tags: low-code, visual-builder, ast-based, react-designer, source-code-generation, drag-and-drop, netease, web-server, nodejs, typescript
