Welcome to the Kaoto Designer

Kaoto provides a powerful visual designer for building Apache Camel integrations without writing code. Whether you’re creating simple file processors or complex AI-powered workflows, the designer helps you:

  • Create and manage integrations visually using drag-and-drop components
  • Configure components through intuitive forms instead of YAML syntax
  • Build routes by connecting Camel components, Kamelets, and EIPs (Enterprise Integration Patterns)
  • Test and run your integrations directly from VS Code

The designer supports all major Camel resource types including Routes, Kamelets, and Pipes, giving you the flexibility to build integrations that match your specific needs.

Getting Started

New to Kaoto? Start with Managing Integrations to learn how to create, organize, and work with your first integration. This guide covers everything from creating new integrations to understanding the different resource types available in Kaoto.

Once you’re comfortable with the basics, explore the other sections to master component configuration, node management, and advanced designer features.
