FormCMS: The AI-Powered App Platform

FormCMS is an open-source platform that turns natural language into full-stack apps — schemas, APIs, UI, and deployment — in minutes. Ship with Docker, build with AI agents, scale to millions of records.

✨ Why FormCMS?

<table> <tr> <td align="center" width="33%"> <h3>🤖 AI-Powered</h3> <p>Generate schemas, data, GraphQL queries, and full UI pages from natural language — in the browser or through AI agents.</p> </td> <td align="center" width="33%"> <h3>🔌 MCP Server Built-In</h3> <p>AI agents (Antigravity, Cursor, Codex) connect directly via MCP to design schemas, seed data, and deploy apps — all from the chat window.</p> </td> <td align="center" width="33%"> <h3>🚀 Scalable & Performant</h3> <p>P95 latency under 200ms, 2,400+ QPS throughput. SQLite, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, and MySQL supported.</p> </td> </tr> </table>

🛠️ Three Ways to Build

<table> <tr> <td align="center" width="33%"> <h3>🌐 Beginners</h3> <p><strong>No IDE needed.</strong> Open FormMate in your browser, describe what you want in plain English — AI generates your schemas, sample data, queries, and pages.</p> <p><a href="https://demo.formcms.com/mate">Try the live demo →</a></p> </td> <td align="center" width="33%"> <h3>🎨 Frontend Developers</h3> <p><strong>Build with AI agents.</strong> Connect Antigravity, Cursor, or Codex to the built-in MCP server — the agent designs your schema, writes your React app, and deploys it.</p> <p><a href="https://github.com/formcms/formcms/wiki/Vite-React-Antigravity-Example">AI agent setup guide →</a></p> </td> <td align="center" width="33%"> <h3>⚙️ Full-Stack Developers</h3> <p><strong>Extend the platform.</strong> FormMate is Node.js (Fastify), FormCMS is .NET — fork the repo, add custom endpoints, write plugins, or integrate external services.</p> <p><a href="https://github.com/formcms/formcms/wiki/Setup.md">Dev setup guide →</a></p> </td> </tr> </table>
