What are Applets?
An applet is a self-contained module of content and functionality within your app. Think of it as a mini-app that handles one specific purpose — a news feed, a booking form, a product catalogue, or a contact directory.
Why Applets?
Applets let you organize your app into logical sections. Each applet has its own:
- Pages — Designed with the visual drag-and-drop editor
- Plugins — Forms, files, ecommerce, and other functionality
- Permissions — Control who can view or edit the applet
- Settings — Independent configuration
Applet Lifecycle
- Create an applet and give it a name and description
- Design its pages using the visual editor and widgets
- Enable plugins to add functionality (forms, files, etc.)
- Configure permissions for who can access it
- Publish the applet to one or more apps
