Here’s a quick look at what’s inside the app catalog and why devs are using it.
4 PikaPods Apps Developers Should Know
1. Activepieces**
Activepieces is a self-hosted workflow automation tool, similar to Zapier or IFTTT. Developers can use it to automate tasks, connect APIs, and create custom workflows without relying on external SaaS. It’s ideal for small teams or side projects where you want automation but full control over data.
2. BookStack
BookStack is a wiki and documentation platform. Perfect for internal documentation, project wikis, or knowledge bases, it allows developers to organize content in a searchable, structured way.
3. Listmonk
Listmonk is a high-performance mailing list and newsletter manager. It’s self-hosted, giving developers full control over campaigns, subscriber lists, and email sending without relying on services like Mailchimp.
4. Immich
Immich is a self-hosted photo and video library with mobile client support. Developers can use it to store, index, and manage media for projects while maintaining privacy and control.
