Overview
VibeFlow lets you build powerful backend workflows visually or through AI. Connect nodes to create APIs, automations, and data pipelines, with a built-in database and optional frontend. Here are the key concepts you need to understand.Workflows
A workflow is a visual representation of your backend logic. Think of it as a flowchart where each box (node) performs a specific task, and arrows show how data flows between them.Visual Logic
Connect nodes visually instead of writing code
Real-time Testing
Test your workflows instantly as you build
Nodes
Nodes are the building blocks of workflows. Each node performs a specific function, like fetching data, sending emails, or making decisions.Node Categories
Data Nodes
Data Nodes
Handle database operations and data management
- Query: Fetch data from your database
- Mutation: Create, update, or delete data
- Collection: Work with arrays and collections
Trigger Nodes
Trigger Nodes
Start workflows based on events
- Frontend Element (Start Node): Connect to UI components and kick off a workflow
- Webhook: Receive incoming HTTP requests from external services
- Cron: Run workflows on a schedule
Core Nodes
Core Nodes
Essential building blocks for backend logic
- Return: Send a response back to the caller
- HTTP Request: Call external APIs and services
Flow Nodes
Flow Nodes
Control how data moves through your workflow
- If-Else: Branch logic based on conditions
- Edit Fields: Transform and reshape data between nodes
- Code: Write custom logic when you need full control
- For Loop: Iterate over lists of items
AI & Integrations
AI & Integrations
Add intelligence and connect to third-party services
- Agent (AI): AI-powered processing and decisions using LLMs
- MCP Tools: Connect to Model Context Protocol tool servers
- Stripe: Accept payments and manage subscriptions
- Email: Send emails via Resend
Connections
Connections are the arrows between nodes that show how data flows through your workflow. Data from one node becomes input for the next node.Variables & Data
VibeFlow automatically passes data between nodes, but you can also use variables to store and reuse data throughout your workflow.Data Sources:
- Frontend Input: Data from forms, user interactions
- Database: Information stored in your database
- API Responses: Data from external services
- Node Output: Results from previous nodes in the workflow
Credits & Features

Name Things Clearly
Use descriptive names for workflows and nodes
Test Early & Often
Test workflows as you build them
