So it’s actually software that you can run, and with that build apps? Like a visual editor or something? Or is it a library? What’s a toolkit in this instance?

It’s an elixir skeleton that runs a system of modules you can combine (just with configs) or that you can extend by adding new modules.
The skeleton does the bare minimum and the modules contain all the logic. It’s not a no-code tool (that would be astounding, but doesn’t exist yet), you still need to write some config files (flavours) or write some elixir.

Huh. Okay.
Well alright, thanks for explaining.
