Kottster

Kottster is an open-source, self-hosted solution designed to accelerate the creation of custom admin panels for various applications. It connects directly to your existing SQL databases, including PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, Microsoft SQL Server, and SQLite, allowing you to generate functional admin interfaces in minutes. The tool offers a visual builder to quickly set up table pages for viewing and editing database records, as well as dashboard pages for visualizing data with charts and metrics.

Beyond its instant page generation capabilities, Kottster provides extensive customization options. Users can leverage a simple visual builder for basic adjustments or dive into the code to build entirely custom pages using JavaScript and React. This flexibility, combined with its robust tech stack (Node.js, React, Vite, Mantine, TypeScript), makes Kottster a powerful tool for developers who need full control over their internal tools and data infrastructure. Being self-hosted and open-source, it offers transparency, cost-effectiveness, and the ability to deploy the admin panel to your own servers or cloud environment.
