Low-code, open-source web framework for the 21st century — built with Python and JavaScript

What Is Frappe Framework?

Frappe Framework is an open-source web application framework that helps developers build scalable and modular applications with ease. Built on Python and JavaScript, it’s designed to be fast, secure, and developer-friendly.

Build Modular and Customizable Applications

With Frappe, developers can create custom modules and plugins that integrate seamlessly into existing systems. This modular approach allows teams to build complex applications while maintaining flexibility and control — perfect for businesses that need tailor-made solutions.

Strong Focus on Security

Security is built into the core of Frappe Framework. It includes SQL injection and cross-site scripting protection, password hashing, and HTTPS support by default — ensuring all data transmitted between the client and server stays encrypted and protected.

Developer-Friendly Tools and Features

Frappe simplifies development with powerful tools:

Internationalization (i18n) and Localization (l10n): Easily build multi-language applications.

Built-in ORM (Object Relational Mapping): Work with databases like MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQLite in a clean, Pythonic way.

Asynchronous Programming: Write non-blocking, readable, and maintainable code.

Jinja2 Templating Engine: Create dynamic HTML templates quickly.

Role-Based Access Control

Frappe comes with user authentication and role-based permissions, allowing you to define who can access what. This ensures sensitive data and features stay restricted to authorized users.

Developers can extend Frappe’s capabilities with built-in modules such as:

  • CMS (Content Management System)
  • E-commerce Solutions
  • Project Management Tools
  • CRM (Customer Relationship Management)

You can also create your own modules or integrate third-party tools through Frappe’s robust API.

Open Source and Community Driven

Frappe has a thriving developer community constantly improving the framework. Its open-source nature means developers can contribute, customize, and extend it as they wish — with access to a wide range of third-party libraries and plugins.

Why Choose Frappe Framework?

Frappe Framework gives developers the freedom to build secure, scalable, and modular web applications faster than ever. Its blend of flexibility, performance, and ease of use makes it the ideal foundation for modern business applications.
