# Overview

> Explore the documentation site for YepCode, the all-in-one platform that seamlessly connects your services and APIs with agility.

Welcome to YepCode, the integration and automation tool designed for developers who love working with source code.

While no-code tools have their merits, YepCode offers a compelling alternative for developers who prefer writing code over dealing with extensive drag-and-drop interfaces and complex execution graphs. It caters to those requiring advanced features like streaming information, reusable program logic, and transactional support.

This documentation platform is a work in progress, and we value your feedback as we continue to improve.

## How does it work?

[Section titled “How does it work?”](#how-does-it-work)

YepCode allows you to create processes by implementing logic through [source code](/docs/processes), supporting two programming languages:

* JavaScript
* Python

The platform provides a plethora of components and features to efficiently solve **real problems**. With both an IDE and an execution environment, YepCode enables automation of any software task and integration allowing to use any NPM or PyPI package.

Once your YepCode process is implemented, you can [run it](/docs/executions) manually, configure [scheduled executions](/docs/executions/scheduled) (cron jobs), trigger it using [*Webhooks*](/docs/executions/webhooks), or even [embed the form](/docs/forms) on any external webpage.

## How do I get started?
