FormCMS is an open-source CMS that uses AI to generate your entire app — schemas, data, APIs, and UI — from natural language. Build production-ready applications in minutes, not weeks.
|
Generate schemas, data, GraphQL queries, and full UI pages using natural language prompts. Let AI handle the tedious work while you focus on creativity. |
No .NET or backend experience needed. Run FormCMS with Docker, build your app with React and AI — that's it. |
P95 latency under 200ms, 2,400+ QPS throughput. Handle millions of posts with CDN caching and billions of user activities with horizontal sharding. |
Watch FormCMS build a complete Library system (Entities, Data, Queries, and UI) from scratch in under 60 seconds (sped up 10x).
You don't need .NET or any backend experience to use FormCMS. Just run the Docker image and start building your frontend with the tools you already know:
- Use React + Vite to build your app
- Use AI (e.g., Antigravity, Cursor) to generate schemas, queries, and pages
- FormCMS provides the backend, APIs, and admin panel — all running inside Docker
📖 See the Vite + React + Antigravity example →
| App | Description |
|---|---|
| Zen Health Tracker | A full health tracking app built in hours using FormCMS + AI coding agent — zero manual coding. |
No coding skills? No problem. FormCMS lets you build dynamic, data-driven pages without writing a single line of code.
- Use the built-in FormCMS Page feature to create pages powered by your database
- Let AI generate entire pages for you — not just static HTML, but pages that read and display live data
- Manage your content, schemas, and pages all from the visual admin panel
💡 Just describe what you want — AI handles the schema, the data, and the page. You get a fully functional, dynamic web page.
The easiest way to get FormCMS running. No backend setup, no .NET, no database installation required.

FormCMS is actively evolving toward a vision of no-code app building with AI. Here's what's coming:
| Phase | Focus | Key Features |
|---|---|---|
| Enhanced AI | Smarter generation | Natural language → schema, AI-suggested relationships, auto-generated CRUD & queries |
| Visual Builder | No-code editing | Drag-and-drop page builder, visual schema editor, real-time preview, theme templates |
| Marketplace | Community ecosystem | Pre-built app templates, community components, one-click install |
The Vision: Describe your app in plain English → AI generates the entire backend (entities, queries, pages) → deploy with one click. No code required.
