Walk through creating a Flows custom app, running it locally, and publishing it to CDF in a single guided path. Before you build for customers, review the quality guidelines — they define the standards your app must meet for certification.

Get started

Run specify, clarify, and plan on a real example and end with a reviewable implementation plan.

App state in URLs

Run your app locally

Dev server, HTTPS, CDF iframe, and local configuration.

Trust the local HTTPS certificate

One-time mkcert setup, plus a no-admin fallback.

Deploy

Interactive deploy and CI/CD.

Quality guidelines

Engineering and design standards every Flows app must meet.
