App Overview
How apps map to deployments, visibility, and code sources.
App Overview
An app is the unit of deployment in OpenPond. Each app becomes a tool server with its own deployments, endpoints, and metadata.
App types (where code lives)
- Internal: Code is stored in OpenPond-managed repos. Best for fast iteration and AI-assisted edits.
- GitHub: Code stays in your GitHub repo. OpenPond deploys what you push.
Visibility (who can call it)
- Public
- HTTP access is open.
- No Turnkey auth; add app-level auth if you need it.
- Private
- HTTP access is protected with Turnkey JWT.
Where apps live in the UI
- Example app page: App home
Apps can be created from Builder or Create app.
