Main Page: https://openkoda.com/
Git: https://github.com/openkoda/openkoda
License: MIT
Docker: Yes
Demo: Available application templates at https://github.com/openkoda/openkoda/tree/main/examples
Summary:
Openkoda is a powerful open-source business application platform built with Java and Spring Boot that dramatically accelerates enterprise application development. Designed for full customization and free from vendor lock-in, it provides a comprehensive foundation for building SaaS applications, internal tools, and enterprise systems up to 60% faster than traditional development approaches.The platform comes with pre-built functionality including authentication, role-based security, advanced user management, multitenancy support, REST API generation, file management, audit trails, and automated backup systems. It offers industry-specific application templates for insurance, property management, time tracking, and claim management, giving developers a solid foundation to build upon.
Key features include a visual dashboard builder with drag-and-drop functionality, SQL reporting capabilities, email automation, in-app notifications, and seamless integrations with popular tools like Slack, Discord, GitHub, and Jira. The platform supports multiple deployment options including Docker containers and can be easily installed using a simple one-liner Docker Compose command.

- Admin Dashboard showing system overview and management tools
- Organization Settings interface for multi-tenant configuration
- Dynamic Dashboard Builder with drag-and-drop widgets
- SQL Reporting interface for custom data queries
- User Management and Role-Based Security configuration screens
- Application Templates showcase (Insurance, Time Tracking, Property Management)
Installation Note:
While Openkoda supports Docker deployment, it would need to be specifically packaged for Cloudron following their app packaging guidelines. The existing Docker Compose setup provides a good foundation, but a dedicated Cloudron manifest would be required for proper integration with Cloudron's user management and backup systems. -

I haven't looked in much detail (sorry). -

I haven't looked in much detail (sorry).@timconsidine You are correct. It is positioned as an insurtech platform - claims management, policy lifecycle, embedded insurance products. The GitHub repo shows more general capabilities, but their commercial focus is insurance-specific applications.
I added a hint to metabase to help "categorising roughly, but probably it was misleading.

Thank you @nottheend
While all such low-code/no-code tech is interesting, unless the more general capabilities are clearly documented and easily deliverable, I kinda doubt packaging Openkoda would be worth the time and effort.
But hey, who know? Maybe it appeals to someone and maybe we have some insurtech providers/users here - it's a broad community !
