Hi @pedro-. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Refine is not a no-code/low-code platform in the traditional sense. It's actually a React-based framework that provides a sweet spot between traditional development and low-code solutions.
Refine is designed for developers who want to build data-intensive applications quickly without sacrificing flexibility or control over the code. It offers a set of hooks and components that streamline the development process, but you still have full access to the source code and can customize it as needed.
Regarding your need for a base CRM structure with full control over the code, Refine can indeed provide this. Here are a couple of relevant points:
1. Refine offers a complete CRM example project that you can use as a starting point. This project includes features like dashboard analytics, calendar, scrumboard, and CRUD operations for managing companies, contacts, and quotes.
2. You can access the full source code of this CRM example. As mentioned in the README:
"This is a complete CRM (Customer Relationship Management) example project built using refine and Ant Design. It provides a set of tools and features to manage customer data, track interactions, and streamline business processes."
3. Refine's architecture is designed to give you full control over your application. As stated in the Refine documentation:
"Refine's headless architecture enables the building of highly customizable applications by decoupling business logic from UI and routing."
So, with Refine, you can start with a base CRM structure and have full access to modify and extend the code as needed for your specific requirements. This approach allows you to benefit from pre-built functionality while maintaining the flexibility to customize every aspect of your application.
