About Securely deploy vibe-coded apps in one governed platform. Build in Retool, import from tools like Claude Code, Replit, or Lovable, or connect via MCP. However your team builds, every app ships safely, with governance built in. People across your organization are already vibe-coding internal tools with no SSO, no RBAC, no audit logs, and no connection to your existing data controls. Retool is where secure vibe coding happens by default. Build from scratch, import an app from another AI builder, or connect an agent via MCP — governance lives in the platform, not in each individual app.		About WebSmart is a rapid development tool for creating RPG and PHP desktop & mobile web applications. Responsive templates help you quickly create modern applications and APIs that you can customize for any business need using WebSmart’s powerful IDE.

Use responsive templates to create web and mobile applications that use a single code base. Use WebSmart’s API templates to quickly and seamlessly integrate your Db2 files and RPG programs with other web services. The PHP Edition helps you produce open source PHP applications that run on multiple platforms (IBM i, Windows, Linux, or Unix).
