FEATURES

Pages, data, and a portal in one application.

Data collections

Define fields and relationships to generate forms and record lists. In the editor, you can select related records and attach files from the library.

Customer portal

Customers sign in to see their own requests. Your team works on them in the admin panel and can keep selected fields private.

OPTIONAL E-COMMERCE MODULE

Formaku Commerce

Add a product catalog and order management to your Laravel app. The package provides an API you can use to build your own storefront.

Development version. For integration and testing with synthetic data. A ready-made storefront, shipping, and online payments are outside the current scope.

Example order flow

  1. GET /products · POST /quotesCatalog and quote

    Publish an SKU with a price and stock. A signed-in customer requests a current quote.

  2. POST /ordersOrder and reservation

    The customer places an order from the quote. Available stock is reserved for a limited time.

  3. POST /admin/orders/{id}/payBank transfer and pickup

    An authorized team member confirms the transfer and marks the order complete after pickup.

EXAMPLE APPLICATION

A service catalog with request tracking.

A small team can publish its services and manage customer requests from one panel. The starter includes a sample configuration for this workflow.

    Publish your services

    Create a Pages and Services collection, add content, and publish a page.

  2. 02

    Receive a request

    The customer submits a request in the portal. Your team can assign it to a staff member when updating its status.

  3. 03

    Share progress

    Update the status in the admin panel. Customers can check their request in the portal.

QUICK START

Try Formaku locally.
