Open source alternatives to IFTTT[006]

IFTTT connects apps, services and smart home devices through simple trigger-and-action automation applets. Below are 6 self-hostable open source alternatives, ranked by GitHub popularity.

// EDITOR'S TAKE

Activepieces is the closest fit for IFTTT's audience: a no-code builder with a large connector catalogue and a gentle learning curve. n8n handles far more complex branching, loops and custom code and is where you land once applets stop being enough, while Windmill assumes you are comfortable writing scripts and Hook0 only moves webhooks around.
