What is Sprout?

Sprout is a web application framework, different than the dozens that already exist.
Similar to Ruby on Rails, Laravel, Django, and others - it facilitates rapid development of a web application.

  • Provides default configurations
  • Uses conventions and standards to develop and debug faster

Similar to WordPress.

  • You can use the Sprout Server Docker image as a "no code" solution
  • Custom css or third party plugins/modules can be added without recompiling the server.

Similar to other headless CMS.

  • It's 'head optional'.
    The provided UI is a stand-alone ReactJS application, but there's no requirement to use it.

Sprout is different than other frameworks -

  • You can use it as an application dependency
    Adding Sprout Starter to your Spring project allows customization, replacing default components, extend provided functionality, or turn off capabilities.
  • Non-Intrusive
    Sprout can be replaced or removed with less effort than other frameworks due to abstractions.
    You can use Sprout to standup a project, then replace implementations until it is no longer required.

Why not code generation?

Code generation has applicable use cases, but applications built on generated code can be difficult to update especially with customizations.
With Sprout as a dependency, customizations and modules are abstracted from the core application code, so you can update it like any other application dependency.

Use Cases

The Sprout Platform provides an extensible and modular application platform, so it's suitable for custom CMS, line-of-business, application portals, or other types of apps.
The modular design allows closed-source customizations to be applied for each unique case.

The development is currently sponsored by a rapidly growing restaurant franchise, using it as a "Enterprise Portal", where they can bring together disparate systems.
It's also being used as a line-of-business application to manage entities and data attributes, such as franchise location information, QA, and BI administration.

Please contact [email protected] if you are interested more in this use case.

The front-end UI uses a plugin system to add or modify functionality.
Read more about the front-end

The back-end server uses a module system to add or modify functionality. A module may also provide plugins to the UI.

You may notice, inspiration [and some code] for the user-interface came from Grafana - an excellent dashboard application.
