Refine for production
It says refine is for internal tools.
I want to use refine as a react provider for a production app, it seems very nice.
The app is not an internal tool but a simple SaaS
Is it valid? Am i missing some point? Is it not stable?

Yes, you can definitely use Refine for a production app. Refine is a React-based framework that is designed to build data-intensive applications quickly and with ease. It's not limited to internal tools, but also suitable for building admin panels, dashboards, B2B apps, and more. It's a versatile tool that can be used for a wide range of applications, including SaaS.
Refine is open-source and is under the MIT license, which means it's free to use and modify. It's also customizable, allowing you to change it to fit your needs. It supports Ant Design for quick and easy solutions, and it's backend agnostic, so you can connect to any backend you want. It's also fully compatible with server-side rendering with Next.js.
Refine has a headless architecture, which means you can choose any UI library for your requirements. It also supports a wide range of backend services and authentication providers. It has internal support for the i18n framework, and it also has perfect state management for React Query.
Refine is used by more than 8K+ apps in production, 32K+ active developers in the open-source community, and 200K+ end users using apps built with Refine. This indicates that it's stable and reliable for production use.
