deco — deno composable web framework by deco.cx

Every business needs a fast, reliable website that empowers its brand. Every website needs a powerful visual editor and configuration panel that empowers business people to create and evolve their digital experiences without the need for developers to deploy changes.

Delivering great frontend on robust infrastructure is just one part of the problem. The harder part is empowering business users to have freedom to create and evolve. And that’s what deco is all about.

deco is a new type of web framework that builds the admin UI for your web app, automatically, as you build it. It allows developers to create high-performance, edge-native web applications that can be controlled via a powerful, visual admin UI with no extra effort.

In deco, developers define Blocks. They are built on top of Deno to provide reusable, configurable “packaged capabilities” that can be composed together to create and deploy powerful web applications in minutes.

The deco admin UI itself is based on blocks, and can be extended and customized to fit your needs. This allows developers to compose their custom, bespoke digital experience admin UIs to serve their business users needs exactly. With deco, you get everything you need, and nothing you don’t.

Get started with deco today, and build your next web app with the power of Deno composable building blocks and the ease of a visual admin UI. Create and deploy a site at https://deco.cx for free!

How it works

deco allows developers to create sections (UI components), loaders (data fetchers), pages (composed of sections and loaders), and many other types of blocks that can then be easily configured in a visual editor UI by anyone in the team with realtime changes.

Besides pages, deco also lets teams manage audiences, flags, experiments and campaigns with an instant, global configuration management service optimized for the edge. Using matcher functions, configuration changes can be applied to any specific audience. Every change is instantly available to matched users, from gradual rollout of features, to A/B testing content, to targeting specific users with personalized content.
