Windmill
Windmill is an open-source developer platform that turns scripts into workflows, internal tools, and APIs with minimal code.
What is Windmill
Windmill is a developer platform that combines code with visual workflow building. You can write scripts in Python, TypeScript, Go, Bash, or SQL, and the platform automatically creates user interfaces for them. Unlike traditional low-code tools, Windmill lets you use real code while still providing visual tools for non-developers.
The platform works as a workflow engine that connects different scripts together. You can schedule tasks, create APIs from your scripts, and build custom apps with a drag-and-drop interface. Windmill supports both cloud hosting and self-hosting on your own servers.
There are free and paid versions. The free version includes unlimited script creation and basic features, while paid plans offer more executions, advanced support, and enterprise features like audit logs.
How to Use Windmill
Getting started with Windmill is straightforward. Here are the main steps:
Sign up for a free account on their website or deploy Windmill on your own server using Docker.
Write a script in your preferred language like Python or TypeScript. The platform automatically detects parameters and creates an input form.
Test your script directly in the web editor. You can run it immediately to see results without any deployment steps.
Turn your script into a workflow by connecting it with other scripts. Use the visual flow builder to create multi-step processes.
Create custom apps using the app builder. Drag and drop components like tables, charts, and forms to build interfaces for your scripts.
Schedule scripts to run automatically using cron expressions, or trigger them via webhooks and API calls.
Share your work with team members using workspace permissions and folders.
