More About Makerator

Be productive, fast

It has been designed to be powerful enough to use in a production setting, while remaining accessible enough to dig through and understand, quickly.

Good Defaults

It stays out of the way and lets you focus on what you are good at: designing and building websites. You’ll apprecieate that it has built–in form tools, complete with client and server–side validation: both with zero configuration .

Easy to Extend

Adding new capabilities to Makerator is easy. As easy as adding a new table to your database, in most cases. Makerator will reckognize your new table and it handles the mess of giving you an admin interface all on its own. (You’re welcome!)
