About Naive UI Admin

Naive UI Admin (Vue, free) - Free Vue 3 admin dashboard template built on Naive UI, frontend only. Best for: A Vue 3 developer who already has a backend API and wants a free, MIT-licensed admin frontend that comes with menu and button permissions.

The usual reason to look elsewhere: you need auth, billing or a database out of the box, or your team can't read Chinese: the README and changelog are in Chinese, and you'd build the whole server side yourself.
