Clear onboarding

A new Refine project can be bootstrapped by executing a single npm command as demonstrated in the Quick Start Guide:

npm create refine-app@latest

Developers will be led through various setup options by the wizard-like CLI tool.

Alternatively, Refine also offer a browser-based scaffolder accessible from refine.dev landing page. Using this GUI, users can instantly create and preview their projects.

Ecosystem compatibility

Refine has no limitations within the React ecosystem. In contrast, Refine's headless, plug-in-based architecture promotes developers to build with a diverse set of ecosystem components including React engines, UI frameworks, routers, and backend services.

Self-hosting option

Refine projects can be deployed to any environment capable of running React. We exclusively offer the self-hosting option and do not require any cloud or hosting dependencies from our side.

Developer Experience

Supporting all native React features out-of-the-box, Refine also implements an extensive set of features directly targeting developer experience:

• Refine DevTools : https://refine.dev/docs/guides-concepts/development/#usage-1
• Codemod updates
• Refine CLI : https://refine.dev/docs/packages/cli/
• Interactive Tutorials: https://refine.dev/tutorial/
• CLI and in-browser project scaffolding tools

User Experience

Refine is a meta-framework for CRUD-heavy web applications. It addresses a wide range of enterprise use cases including internal tools, admin panels, dashboards and B2B apps.

Refine is designed to work on Next.js, Vite, React Native, Electron, or Remix as per the developer's selection. Developers have access to any features provided by the underlying React engine.

Compatible with our future vision for React

We're keeping our framework aligned with the latest features and releases as much as possible. To avoid any disruptive changes, we're carefully stepping toward new features as they get adopted by the community. We're not only following the features of React but also working on ways to implement them in ways to make them easier to adopt for the React community.
