Ycode Documentation

Welcome to Ycode. Ycode is a visual website builder that gives you full control over your site. Think of it as an alternative to Webflow or Framer, but one that you can self-host or use as a managed cloud service. You get a drag-and-drop editor, a built-in CMS, forms, and more.

Open Source or Cloud — your choice

Ycode is available in two ways:

Ycode Cloud — Go to ycode.com and sign up. No setup required. You get a fully managed instance with hosting, updates, and support included. Best for teams and individuals who want to start building immediately.

Ycode Open Source — Fork the repository on GitHub , deploy on your own Vercel + Supabase infrastructure, and own everything. Best for developers who want full control, customization, or to contribute to the project.

Both versions share the same core features. The editor, CMS, forms, localization, and all other capabilities described in this documentation apply to both Ycode Cloud and Ycode Open Source.
