This is the official documentation of the @forestadmin/agent Node.js agent.

Forest Admin instantly provides all common admin tasks such as CRUD operations, simple chart rendering, user group management, and interface editor. That’s what makes Forest Admin a quick and easy solution to get your admin interface started.

This documentation assists developers and managers in having the admin completely tailored to cater to their specific needs. We’ve developed Forest Admin so that your admin is 100% customizable. It means that you have full control over your data, your back-end business logic, and the UI.

Forest Admin provides a very simple framework to handle all parts of your admin backend configuration. You should be good to go in no time, with virtually no investments of time and resources.
