Development

Install the required dependencies

$ pnpm install

For local development, start the local mock server and use its mock data.

$ pnpm dev

Open the following URL in your browser: [http://localhost:8080/?type=app&id=918&tenant=1&pageid=NTJ4MjvqoVj8OVsc](http://localhost:8080/?type=app\&id=918\&tenant=1\&pageid=NTJ4MjvqoVj8OVsc)

URL search parameters:

• type=app Application type
• id=xxx Application ID
• tenant=xxx Organization ID
• pageid=xxx Page ID

Build

# Build all plugins first
pnpm run build:plugin

# Build the designer
pnpm run build:alpha  or build:prod
