Open source

Bring your own backend

Free MIT licensed

The FlowDrop editor is an MIT-licensed npm package. You install it into your own application and run it on your own infrastructure. There is nothing to buy and no account to create.

You supply the backend. FlowDrop’s REST API is a contract your server implements, so workflows are stored in your database and executed by your code. Implement it yourself, or run the Drupal module, which is a complete FlowDrop backend.

@flowdrop/flowdrop — the editor package on npm
flowdrop-io/flowdrop — the source, on GitHub
FlowDrop for Drupal — a full backend, on drupal.org
Backend implementation guide — the endpoints your server implements

Hosted

We run the backend

If you would rather not run a backend, Factorial.io hosts one for you: flowdrop-rs, a Rust server implementation of the FlowDrop API. You get the same editor, against a backend you do not have to operate.

The hosted backend is offered to enterprise customers only, and accounts are provisioned by Factorial.io. Pricing depends on your deployment, so it is a conversation rather than a published rate — tell us what you need and we will come back to you.

Pricing FAQ

Is FlowDrop free to use?: Yes. The FlowDrop editor is MIT licensed and free for any project, commercial ones included. You run it yourself, against a backend you provide.
Do I need a backend?: Yes — FlowDrop is the editor, and it needs a server that stores workflows and runs executions. You can implement the REST contract on your own backend, or run the Drupal module, which is a complete FlowDrop backend. There is also a reference Express server for local development.
What license is FlowDrop under?: MIT. The editor ships as @flowdrop/flowdrop on npm and the source is public at github.com/flowdrop-io/flowdrop.
Is the hosted Rust backend open source?: No. The MIT licence covers the FlowDrop editor. flowdrop-rs, the Rust backend behind the hosted offer, is not published as open source — it is operated by Factorial.io as a service.
How do I get a price for hosting?: Get in touch with Factorial.io through the contact form. The hosted backend is an enterprise offer and is quoted per deployment, so there is no published rate.
