Introduction

Plomino is a powerful and flexible web-based application builder for Plone.

Features

  • create your own custom applications from a web interface without programming
  • create and design forms in WYSIWYG mode
  • easily embed charts or maps
  • create specific actions with formulas (compute fields, send emails, ...)
  • adapt the application behaviour depending on the user access rights and roles
  • import/export your application structure and/or your application data, including replication between Plomino instances

Positioning

Plomino is a through-the-web application builder, hence:

  • it is not a through-the-web content-type builder like Dexterity, which is perfect to create a custom content type but that will always stick to the standard content management scenario, while Plomino allows any custom scenario,
  • it is not just a form generator like PloneFormGen, as Plomino provides all the services (data storage, search, automation, import/export, etc.) to build an entire application. Regarding form generation itself, a major difference with PloneFormGen is that Plomino allows editing the form layout in its entirety, while PloneFormGen uses a fixed pre-defined form layout.

Resources and documentation
