Developers spend a lot of their time building internal tools using numerous frameworks and technologies. At Retool, we're focused on empowering these developers to build more resilient, powerful internal apps in a fraction of the time.
Retool combines the simplicity of a drag-and-drop interface with the flexibility of code-based customization. Developers visually assemble a highly polished UI using components for different data types, integrate almost any data source, and write SQL and JavaScript to connect everything seamlessly.
Since developers can build almost anything on Retool, our documentation needs to be just as flexible. Retool's products and features combine different concepts and technologies—frontend development, API and database interactions, on-premise deployment, and more. We strive to produce instructional, reference-based, and in-app documentation that makes Retool easy to use while demonstrating its limitless potential.
