Hi everyone, For anyone looking for a modern web or mobile front-end solution for Apache OFBiz, I wanted to share a proof of concept I recently built for a client and have now open-sourced for the community.
If you are looking to upgrade your existing OFBiz instance with a REST-based, decoupled architecture, this approach offers a massive advantage: you can modernize your UI and backend APIs step-by-step without touching or modifying core OFBiz features. Because the core remains stock, all subsequent framework upgrades will be significantly smoother and risk-free. The project is split into three main parts, all released under the Apache-2.0 license: * Angular Client (Web): https://github.com/yashwantdhakad/ofbiz-angular * Flutter Client (Mobile): https://github.com/yashwantdhakad/ofbiz-flutter * REST API Plugin (Backend): https://github.com/yashwantdhakad/common-api What it covers: These clients are built against a stock OFBiz + demo data setup and cover essential day-to-day ERP flows, including Orders, Inventory, Manufacturing, Parties, and Accounting. Each repository's README includes full setup steps, including the specific demo data files to load so you can see it fully populated end-to-end. To set expectations: This is currently a basic, headless-API-driven proof of concept rather than a polished, production-hardened release. I am sharing it as-is to give the community a foundation to build on. I would love to get your thoughts, feedback, and suggestions. If you try it out and encounter any bugs or have questions, please feel free to reply here or open an issue directly on the GitHub repositories. Thanks, Yashwant
