What WeWeb is
WeWeb is a front-end builder for web applications. You build the interface visually, bind components to data from an external back end — Supabase, Xano, Airtable or a REST API — and publish a static front end that scales without a proprietary runtime. That separation is the selling point: the platform handles the interface and logic, while the database and authentication live in services you choose, so you are not locked into a single vendor for your data. It supports custom JavaScript, reusable components and role-based access. The audience is technical teams that want visual speed without giving up code access, and agencies building client portals. The limits are that you still need to configure a back end, and the learning curve is steeper than a template builder. Published apps are hosted by WeWeb or can be exported and deployed to your own hosting, which keeps the option of leaving open.
Best for
- Client portals and internal apps on Supabase or Xano
- Agencies that want visual building without data lock-in
- Teams that need code access alongside a visual editor
Not ideal for
- Non-technical users who need a finished back end
- Simple marketing pages that a template builder handles
Pros
- Back end stays in a service you choose
- Custom JavaScript is available when needed
- Published front end is static and portable
Cons
- Requires configuring a separate back end
- Steeper learning curve than template builders
- Smaller plugin ecosystem than mainstream builders
Pricing in detail
The free plan covers building and testing on a WeWeb subdomain with limited seats and published apps. Paid plans are billed monthly or annually and add custom domains, more seats, higher traffic and production features; enterprise terms are quoted separately. The subscription covers the front end only — the back-end service is billed by whichever provider you connect, so total cost is the two added together.
