### Every great idea starts at zero.
Start with CodeZero. **The open-source platform for building automations visually.

## What is CodeZero? CodeZero lets you build **flows** on a visual canvas instead of writing boilerplate code. A flow can be an automation, an integration, or entire backend logic. Connect a trigger, chain your logic node by node, hit run. That's it. Whether you want to glue two services together, expose your own API, or automate a whole business process: if you can sketch it, you can ship it. ## Build flows with AI Don't start from a blank canvas. Describe what you want or pick a smart template, and CodeZero builds the flow for you. ![Start your automation with a prompt](images/CodeZero_Project_Overview.png) And it doesn't stop at generation. You can refine, extend, or rewrite any part of your flow with a single prompt, right on the canvas. ![Editing a flow with AI](images/Codezero_Flow_Overview.png) Bring your own model: plug in OpenAI, OpenRouter, or any compatible provider and choose which models power your workspace. ## What can you build? - **Integrations:** New GitHub issue? Post it to Discord. New Shopify order? Create the DHL shipment automatically. - **Your own APIs:** Expose any flow as an HTTP endpoint and use CodeZero as a visual backend. - **Scheduled jobs:** Run flows on a cron schedule for reports, syncs, and cleanups. - **Business processes:** Model multi-step logic with full control over data, branching, and error handling. ## Why CodeZero? | | | |---|---| | **Visual flow editor** | Build logic as a graph of nodes that stays readable, debuggable, and shareable with your team. | | **AI-assisted building** | Generate and edit flows with natural language, directly on the canvas. | | **Triggers built in** | HTTP/webhook and cron triggers come out of the box. Plugins add more. | | **Your data, your infrastructure** | Fully self-hostable. Or run hybrid: IDE in the cloud, runtimes on your own hardware. Your data never leaves your network. | | **Scales with you** | Every runtime component scales independently, from a single box to a fleet. | | **Extensible** | Extend runtimes with plugins that add new nodes, flow types, and triggers. | | **Built for teams** | Organizations, projects, roles, and fine-grained permissions included. | ## Made for teams, not just tinkerers Structure your work in projects and organizations, and invite your team into a shared workspace. ![Workspace with projects and members](images/CodeZero_Workspace_Overview.png) Control exactly who can do what. Role templates cover the common setups, and fine-grained permissions handle everything else. ![Role templates and fine-grained permissions](images/CodeZero_Workspace_Role_Permissions.png) ## Getting started All you need is [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/). This repository contains the official releases and the Docker Compose setup: ```bash git clone https://github.com/code0-tech/codezero.git cd codezero/docker-compose # adjust secrets & settings (ports, AI models, ...) in .env, then: docker compose up -d ``` Open [http://localhost](http://localhost) and log in with the initial credentials from your `.env` (default: `root@code0.tech` / `root`). > [!TIP] > Everything is configured through `docker-compose/.env`: which components to run (`COMPOSE_PROFILES`), TLS, ports, and the AI models available in the editor. **Change the default secrets before exposing anything publicly.** For detailed guides, head over to the [documentation](https://docs.codezero.build). ## Community CodeZero is open source and built in the open. Join us: - [Discord](https://discord.com/invite/AyMB7DtA7P): ask questions, share flows, talk to the team - [Docs](https://docs.codezero.build): guides and reference documentation - [GitHub](https://github.com/code0-tech): all components, issues, and contributions - [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/@CodeZeroBuild): devlogs and product updates Contributions are welcome, from new plugins and nodes to docs and bug reports. The [contributing guide](CONTRIBUTING.md) shows you where to start. ## License Licensing varies per component. See the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file in this repository and in each subproject for details. ---
