Avo is an admin panel framework, content management system and internal tool builder for Rails applications. It lets developers create administration interfaces without having to implement every controller, form and view individually.
The software uses code-driven configuration to expose application data through a responsive administrative interface. It can be added to existing projects without requiring major changes to their underlying application structure.
Avo follows an open-core development model. Its Community edition provides essential resource management features, while certain advanced capabilities are available through paid add-ons. These include dashboards, advanced authorisation, custom menu management and additional interface components.
This is free and open source software.
