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.

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.

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.

Control exactly who can do what. Role templates cover the common setups, and fine-grained permissions handle everything else.

Getting started

All you need is Docker. This repository contains the official releases and the Docker Compose setup:
