What is it?

react-admin is a frontend framework for building admin interfaces and other data-driven single-page applications that run in the browser. You connect it to an API through a data provider, and it supplies CRUD pages, data grids, forms, search and filters, authentication, routing and permissions built on Material UI.

The framework is designed as a set of loosely coupled React components and hooks, so any part can be replaced with your own component. The README lists more than 45 data provider adapters for REST and GraphQL backends, and provides a declarative <Resource> component that maps an API endpoint to list, edit and create pages.

The project is written in TypeScript, though JavaScript is also supported. It is built on Material UI, react-hook-form, react-router and react-query, and ships with example applications including an e-commerce demo, a CRM and a simple blog.
