What it is
RuoYi-Vue-Pro is a large open-source starting point for building back-office admin systems, built on Spring Boot, MyBatis Plus and Vue with Element UI or Element Plus. The README lists features such as role-based and data-level permissions, SaaS multi-tenancy, Flowable workflow, a code generator, and optional modules for e-commerce, CRM, ERP, IoT and AI. Developers typically use it as a base to adapt rather than a finished product.
- Start an internal admin dashboard with user, role and menu management
- Adapt the built-in workflow engine for approval processes
- Use the code generator to create Java and Vue CRUD code from database tables
- Run a multi-tenant admin system where each tenant has its own permissions
Great for
- Java developers building an internal admin or back-office system
- Teams that want a starting point with login, permissions and workflow already wired up
- Projects needing multi-tenant (SaaS) admin features
- Developers who want a code generator to scaffold CRUD pages from database tables
Not ideal for
- Non-Java teams, since the backend is Java and Spring Boot (reason: you would need to learn that stack)
- Small projects that only need a simple site or a few pages (reason: the codebase and module count are large)
- Anyone wanting the lightest possible version, unless they use the mini edition (reason: the full edition includes many modules that add complexity)
How to get it
- 1
Clone and build from source
You'll need: JDK (version depends on branch: JDK 8, 17/21 or 25) · MySQL (default database) · Redis
Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/YunaiV/ruoyi-vue-pro - 2
Run it
- Choose the branch matching your JDK version (master for JDK 8, master-jdk17 for 17/21, master-jdk25 for 25)
- Create the database using the scripts in the sql directory for your database
- Configure database and Redis connection settings, then start the backend
- Start the Vue frontend and log in to the admin dashboard
- Follow the quick-start guide at doc.iocoder.cn for detailed steps
- 3
Get the most out of it
- Use the code generator to scaffold CRUD pages for new business tables
- Use the 'yudao-boot-mini' edition if you only need system and infrastructure features
- Review the dynamic permission and multi-tenant sections before designing your access model
- Check the official docs at doc.iocoder.cn for the migration and deployment guides
Downloads
Strengths
- Broad built-in feature set, documented in the README
- MIT license and the README states the project is fully open source
- Active maintenance with a recent push and multiple version branches for different JDK versions
Trade-offs
- Very large scope, so learning the full codebase takes time
- Main documentation and demos are on Chinese sites, and much of the README is in Chinese
- The README lists many optional modules; you need to choose the edition that fits your needs
