FrePPLe aims at building a lightweight open source framework for modeling and solving production planning problems.
FrePPLe is the first open source production planning toolkit for your day-to-day
production planning problems.
For the developer community, the project is also trying to establish a
common ground framework for planning applications. Rather than rebuilding the
basic foundation from scratch over and over again, developers can now leverage
a proven framework and extend it with their own extension modules.
New workflows and functionality can now be built much quicker and easier.
