🛠️ AppForge

A visual app builder for Windows, made for people who are not programmers. Describe the app you need, design its pages by dragging components onto a canvas, define its data in a visual table builder — and AppForge generates the working screens, runs the app for real, and exports it as a standalone Windows program you can hand to anyone. Your projects live in folders you own, and you can export the full project source anytime: no lock-in, no runtime fees, no subscription.

What it does

• A designer that feels familiar. Project tree and component palette on the left, your page on a canvas in the center, properties on the right, Run / Build / Undo / Redo across the top. Drag, resize, align, duplicate, lock and hide — a palette of 22 components from headings and inputs to data grids, charts, tabs and modals.
• A database builder, not a SQL prompt. Define tables and fields visually — fifteen field types including currency, dates, images, files and relationships — with required, unique and validation rules the data layer actually enforces.
• Working screens, generated automatically. For any table, AppForge generates list, detail, add and edit screens automatically, with search, sort and filter — real screens over a real database, not mockups.
• Ask, preview, then decide. Type what you want — "create an inventory system", "add customers", "build a veterinary clinic system" — and the built-in builder proposes structured changes and a data model. You see every change in a change preview (new and modified pages, tables and migrations) and apply or reject it. Nothing is overwritten behind your back.
• History you can trust. Undo and redo for your work, automatic version history, named checkpoints you can restore, and a structural compare that shows what changed between versions.
• Apps that actually run. The built-in runtime engine runs your app for real — forms save records, grids query them, automations fire (a sale can decrease stock; an overdue invoice flags itself). Preview in AppForge, or export and run it anywhere.
• Start from a template. Ten editable templates — inventory, CRM, contacts, expenses, projects, appointments, equipment, property, invoicing, memberships — plus a Small Business Suite sample combining customers, products, inventory, sales, invoices, a dashboard, search, user accounts and reports.
• Users and reports built in. Optional per-app user accounts with hashed passwords and roles (admin, user, or your own), and a report builder with tables and charts over your real data, CSV export and printing.
• A safety pass before you ship. A pre-build security scan flags exposed secrets, missing validation and unsafe settings in plain language, with the findings listed for you to fix.
• Build Windows App — one click. Your finished app exports as a single-file Windows .exe: the project embedded in the built-in runtime engine, with a fresh database initialized on first run. No command line, no SDK, nothing for the person receiving it to install. And Export Project Source writes the whole project definition to a folder you own.
• One file, no installation. AppForge itself is a single .exe (~70 MB). Download it, run it — there is no installer and nothing else to set up.

⚠️ Read before you buy — requirements and limits

• Windows 10/11 only. AppForge runs on Windows today. No macOS version is included in this purchase — there is no Mac build yet.
• The app is unsigned. Windows SmartScreen will warn on first launch ("Windows protected your PC"). Choose "More info → Run anyway" — only for the file you downloaded from this page after buying. Apps you export carry the runtime's unsigned build too, so their first launch may warn the same way.
• Windows is the only export target today. The platform is architected for more targets later, but today Build Windows App is the export you get — there is no Mac, web or mobile export in this version, and the export is a standalone .exe, not an MSI installer.
• Exported apps are powered by the built-in runtime engine. Exactly what that means: your project (pages, tables, rules) is embedded in AppForge's runtime and runs on it — the same engine as the in-app preview. It is a real, working app with its own database; it is not a separately compiled native codebase.
• No cloud AI unless you configure your own provider. The built-in builder is a local interpreter that understands a defined set of requests (creating apps and tables, adding fields, accounts, dashboards and more) and tells you plainly when a request is outside that set. Connecting an AI provider is optional and uses your own account and key, set up in Settings.
• Built for small-team apps. AppForge targets the kind of tools a small business or club runs on one PC — inventories, trackers, membership and invoicing apps. It is not a replacement for a professional development team building public, high-traffic software.

If any of the above is a deal-breaker for you, AppForge isn't for you yet — and we'd rather tell you now than after checkout.
