What is Refine CORE?

Refine CORE is a React meta-framework for CRUD-heavy web applications. It addresses a wide range of enterprise use cases including internal tools, admin panels, dashboards and B2B apps.

Refine CORE's hooks and components streamline the development process by offering industry-standard solutions for crucial aspects of a project, including authentication, access control, routing, networking, state management, and i18n.

Refine CORE's headless architecture enables the building of highly customizable applications by decoupling business logic from UI and routing. This allows integration with:

- Any custom designs or UI frameworks like TailwindCSS, along with built-in support for Ant Design, Material UI, Mantine, and Chakra UI.

- Various platforms, including Next.js, Remix, React Native, Electron, etc., by a simple routing interface without the need for additional setup steps.

Quick Start

Here's Refine CORE in action, the below code is an example of a simple CRUD application using Refine CORE + React Router + Material UI:

`tsx
import React from "react";
import { Refine, useMany } from "@refinedev/core";
import { ThemedLayout } from "@refinedev/mui";
import dataProvider from "@refinedev/simple-rest";
import routerProvider from "@refinedev/react-router";
import { BrowserRouter, Outlet, Route, Routes } from "react-router";

import CssBaseline from "@mui/material/CssBaseline";

export default function App() {
return (


dataProvider={dataProvider("https://api.fake-rest.refine.dev")}
routerProvider={routerProvider}
resources={[
{
name: "products",
list: "/products",
},
]}
>

element={



}
>

} />





);
}

// src/pages/products/list.tsx

import { List, useDataGrid, DateField } from "@refinedev/mui";
import { DataGrid, GridColDef } from "@mui/x-data-grid";

export const ProductList = () => {
const { dataGridProps } = useDataGrid();

const { data: categories, isLoading } = useMany({
resource: "categories",
ids:
dataGridProps?.rows?.map((item) => item?.category?.id).filter(Boolean) ??
[],
queryOptions: {
enabled: !!dataGridProps?.rows,
},
});

const columns = React.useMemo(
() => [
{ field: "id", headerName: "ID", type: "number" },
{ field: "name", flex: 1, headerName: "Name" },
{
field: "category",
flex: 1,
headerName: "Category",
display: "flex",
renderCell: ({ value }) =>
isLoading
? "Loading..."
: categories?.data?.find((item) => item.id === value?.id)?.title,
},
{
field: "createdAt",
flex: 1,
headerName: "Created at",
display: "flex",
renderCell: ({ value }) => ,
},
],
[categories?.data, isLoading],
);

return (



);
};
``

The result will look like this:
