Visual development platform for interactive data apps
Kelp empowers developers to build interactive, real-time data apps. Pull data from anywhere (APIs, databases, event streams). Mash it up using a visual dataflow editor. Create highly interactive UIs and data visualizations. Deploy and run on the cloud.
Hey everyone! 👋
After months in closed beta, we're thrilled to open Kelp.app to everyone. Our team has been working tirelessly to build all the requested features and improvements. We've benefited from a ton of great user feedback. We improved our permission model, made it easier to create teams and workspaces, added new connectors, optimized chart performance, and much, much more.
To give you some background, our goal is to create a platform that empowers developers to quickly and easily build interactive, real-time data applications. The world around us is inherently real-time, but most existing data feels like trapped in various "silos," and applications are either static or have significant latency. We have firsthand experience with this issue, having built various data solutions for large enterprise clients over the years. We want to challenge this status quo. That’s why we built Kelp.
With Kelp, you can pull data from almost any source (with more connectors coming soon) and create your own custom streaming dataflow using a visual editor in real time. In this release, we have packed:
- Multi-source connectivity via a secure data gateway
- Streaming dataflow with a visual editor
- Powerful in-app data transformation engine
- Core library of functional components, stream operators, UI widgets, and charts
- Secured workspaces and teams
- Streamlined one-click deployment and sharing
And this is just the beginning. We have a big vision and a lot of work ahead. We would love to hear your feedback and are happy to answer any questions here on PH.
Kelp is free for individuals! To give it a try go to http://kelp.app. We're so excited to see what you build!
