Boomla Website Builder — Drag and drop website builder and application platform
Boomla helps you create simple, beautiful websites for all your projects.
⠀
It was designed to give you a simple & fast editing experience, while providing power features on a robust application platform. Like a simple drag&drop website builder + a CMS in one.

Looks great! Anyway the name sounds similar to Joomla (CMS)

Thanks @webchun! Well, good domains are hard to find and I haven't come across anyone mixing up the two.
Hi Product Hunt!
(First off, thank you so much @chrismessina for the hunt!)
Boomla is actually 2 products. It is an application platform (I call it a website OS) and a simple drag-and-drop website builder built on top of it.
The ultimate goal is to make it 1) as simple to use as possible while 2) also creating an extremely powerful platform. The two might sound like contradicting goals but they in fact strongly need each other: developers become more efficient at creating applications on top of it, while end-users get to use a larger selection apps. The two just has to go hand-in-hand, it's not enough to have beautiful skins.
I'd like to highlight that Boomla has an extremely generous FREE plan. You will get 1GB of storage that you can use for any number of websites, without ads, on your domain, with SSL support. (Only integrations are paid, so this should cover most use cases for free.)
(Plus the 1GB storage is data-deduplicated: if you upload the same website 2x, it will only use storage quota 1x. This also means can duplicate your website at ~zero cost.)
- Click around on https://uikit.boomla.net to see the available elements (will constantly grow)

I would be really happy to hear your feedback on it!
Cheers,

As a user, I can honestly say that Tibor has undersold the product.
Here's the real DL:
1) Get a website that looks like it cost £10k to build... in half an hour.
2) With support for Parallax. Anims. Plug-ins. All the fancypants things.
3) Responsive and cross-device by default.
4) With a team that, somehow, deliver on feature-requests within days.
5) Providing an interface that could be used by an actual child.
6) Yet with build-a-website-for-clients grade power.
7) And it's capital-F-Free for the needs of 9/10 users.
So put it this way - I just broke up with Wordpress and I'm astounded this hasn't yet flooded "free resources for entrepreneurs" lists across the web. Because frankly this is to web design what mailchimp is to CRM. Overdue, Essential, Genius. Congratulations to the team.
I love this product. I am building a website right now for my business. The tools are so easy to use and intuitive. And the fact that it’s free has been beneficial for someone like me who is just starting. 5 Stars!
I have been using Boomla for a long time. It is very easy to use, I really like it.
I use it almost every day since I have some useful websites, like a link collector, shopping list, recipe collector and also a blog. :)
