Use the Developer Console for the product definition and its reusable artifacts. It combines visual building with the developer escape hatches needed for APIs, installed services, AI, and exact-version distribution.

Primary workspaces

  • SaaS Apps — create products, inspect app-bound identity, manage API clients, and configure integrations.
  • Templates — author, validate, version, publish, install, and upgrade reusable template content.
  • AI Harnesses — compose harness packs, queue exact-version evaluations, publish only passed artifacts, and inspect aggregate installations.
  • Appliances — package isolated services, declare endpoints/egress, validate releases, and publish exact versions.
  • Marketplace — discover entitled versions, install products, and manage the seller catalog, offers, artifacts, revenue, and payouts.
  • Developer Platform — use REST, webhooks, connectors, MCP, the CLI, logs, AI, and contract locks.

Recommended starting path

  1. Read Launch your first app.
  2. Use the Builder Guide for product authoring.
  3. Follow the Developer API quickstart before writing an integration.
  4. Review Selling Templates before publishing marketplace products.

The Developer Console builds with React components, validated data bindings, reviewed APIs, and declared package or connector contracts. Platform-managed tables, database routes, provider secrets, and tenant infrastructure are not editor surfaces.
