What is the Frappe framework?

When you think about building a web application, you probably think about several technologies working together: a backend framework, a frontend library, a database, authentication, APIs, and a user interface. Traditionally, developers have to select, configure, and integrate these different components before they can even begin building the actual application.

_But what if you had a framework that brought most of these essential building blocks together?

That's where Frappe Framework comes in._

Frappe is an open-source, full-stack web application framework built primarily with Python 🐍 and JavaScript. It provides developers with the tools needed to build database-driven applications without having to reinvent common functionality every time they start a new project.

Whether you're building an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system or a custom business application, Frappe provides a foundation to get you started. Let me know what you think, would you explore the Frappeverse? 😀
