Batteries included
Many frameworks only tackle half the problem, offering either a frontend solution like Vue.js or a backend one like Flask or Django. This means developers spend time cobbling together various tools and functionalities. Frappe Framework, however, takes a 'batteries included' approach, providing both frontend with Java and backend with Python in one package. It doesn't stop there—emails, workflow builders, notifications, print formats, and more are all built-in. No need to reinvent the wheel, just configure what you need and get started.
Emails
Integrating email services doesn't have to involve a mountain of code. With Framework, you just have to configure the default incoming and outgoing email account once and let it handle the rest. You can also sync your own email account to send and receive messages directly from your Framework app or send emails directly from any DocType with a print attached.
Workflow builder
Crafting workflows manually can feel like navigating a maze. Framework’s workflow builder has a user-friendly drag-and-drop interface. You can customize workflows and set conditions on each transition, all without getting tangled in code. It’s like having a personal assistant who handles all the process logistics for you.
Webforms
Need to gather feedback or run surveys without getting bogged down in the technical details? Frappe’s got you covered. With just a few clicks, you can generate forms for your site with minimal configuration. These forms can be public, allowing anyone to fill them out, or you can require users to log in. Once the data starts rolling in, it’s all neatly organized on your desk view, ready for you to analyze through reports or visualize in charts. It’s an easy way to collect and manage information, hassle-free.
Notifications
Keeping everyone updated shouldn’t be an extra task on your plate. Set up automated notifications and responses based on document events like record creation, status changes, or approaching due dates. Configure email alerts for key events or set reminders to keep everything on track and your team in the loop.
Workspace
When you log into your Framework app, the first thing you see is the workspace. The default workspace helps you navigate your system, but you can customize it to organize and access your most-used DocTypes, reports, and key charts. This way, you can monitor everything that matters at a glance.
Print formats
Creating customized print formats can often mean wrestling with endless formatting options. Frappe simplifies this by providing default templates for each DocType. Want to tweak the layout? Go ahead and design your own templates to showcase fields exactly where you want them. It’s all about making your printouts look just right for you.
Assignment, comments
With Framework’s assignment feature, you can delegate records to team members and set up automation rules for assignments. You can also use the comments feature to add comments, tag users to any record and keep everyone in the loop with real-time notifications. This is as easy as communication can get.
