It includes everything needed to run it as a business: user registration, permissions, credit top-ups, pay-per-use and subscription billing, usage statistics and an admin dashboard. The backend is written in Go with MySQL and Redis, the front end in Vue for desktop and mobile, and it deploys with Docker and supports several cloud storage services. Documentation and a demo site are available, and the interface is mainly in Chinese.
