Getting Started

Dashin is a scaffold for building React admin/back-office apps quickly. It's powered by Vite, styled with Tailwind CSS + Headless UI, uses TipTap for rich text, and ships an AI-assisted, schema-validated generation flow.

Install & scaffold

npm install --global dashin-cli
dashin new my-admin
cd my-admin
yarn && yarn dev

The dev server runs at http://localhost:3000.

Core commands

Command	Description
dashin new <name>	Create a project (Vite template)
dashin plugin [team]-[group]	Create a plugin (run in plugins/)
dashin schema [name]	Create a schema (run in a plugin dir)
dashin ai generate	Generate a validated admin table from a backend (AI guide)
dashin ai theme	Generate a validated theme from a description
dashin ai refine	Refine an existing generated admin via natural language

Pick a backend

Dashin is backend-agnostic — choose a data-source connector:

• PocketBase
• Appwrite
• Supabase / Postgres

…or Strapi / GraphQL. Set VITE_AUTH_PLUGIN + VITE_AUTH_URL in .env and the same table/CRUD UI works against your data.

Next

• AI-assisted generation — the fastest way to a working admin.
• Flagship demo — one command: backend + seed + generated admin.
