Introduction
Welcome to ObjectStack - The Post-SaaS Operating System
The Post-SaaS Operating System
Protocols last decades. Frameworks die every 3 years.
ObjectStack is not just another framework, nor is it a traditional SaaS. It is a Post-SaaS Operating System designed to decouple your data from storage, your logic from implementation, and your interface from the latest frontend trend.
The Manifesto: Asset Longevity
In the modern software landscape, teams are exhausted by "Framework Fatigue." React replaces Angular, Vue replaces React, Next.js replaces Create React App. Every 3-5 years, we rewrite our applications, not because the business logic changed, but because the implementation details became obsolete.
ObjectStack proposes a radical shift: Invest in Protocols, not Implementations.
By defining your application as pure metadata (Schemas, Workflows, Interfaces), your intellectual property becomes portable, durable, and independent of the underlying technology stack.
The Trinity Architecture
ObjectStack is composed of three decoupled protocol layers:
1. The Engine (ObjectQL)
Metdata-Driven Data Engine. The universal protocol that abstracts storage. It treats PostgreSQL, Redis, MongoDB, and even Excel spreadsheets as equal citizens. You define your schema once, and ObjectQL compiles it into optimized native queries for any driver. Learn more about The Engine →
2. The Platform (ObjectOS)
Low-Code Business Kernel. The operating system for your business logic. It provides a unified runtime for Identity, Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), Workflow Orchestration, and Audit Logging. Whether you are building a local tool or a multi-tenant SaaS, the kernel remains the same. Learn more about The Platform →
3. The Components (ObjectUI)
Enterprise Interface Kit. The projection layer. Instead of hardcoding UI components, you define your interface intent. ObjectUI renders these intents into the current state-of-the-art frontend framework. When the framework changes, your interface definition remains valid. Learn more about The Components →
Core Values
Data Sovereignty & No Lock-in
Your data belongs to you. ObjectStack allows you to mount legacy databases alongside modern cloud storage. No migration scripts required. Connect to Oracle today, switch to Postgres tomorrow, and mount a Google Sheet for your marketing team—all queryable via a single, unified API.
Infrastructure as Code
Everything in ObjectStack is defined as code. Your schemas, your permissions, your workflows, and your UI layouts are all version-controlled text files. This brings the best practices of DevOps to the entire application stack.
Local-First & Self-Hosted
ObjectStack is designed to run anywhere: from a MacBook Air (using SQLite) to a Kubernetes cluster (using Postgres). It supports a "Local-First" development model, allowing you to build full-stack enterprise apps without an internet connection.
