|
|
|

|
|
|
+<blockquote><em>n8n is an extendable workflow automation tool. With a fair-code distribution model, n8n will always have visible source code, be available to self-host, and allow you to add your own custom functions, logic and apps. n8n's node-based approach makes it highly versatile, enabling you to connect anything to everything. -<a href="https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n" target="_blank">https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n</a></em></blockquote>
