Key concepts
Words you will see everywhere — workspace, draft, publish, Build vs Chat, and more.
Glossary
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Workspace | Your account home. Holds apps and plan. |
| App / project | One product you are building. |
| Draft | The editable version in the studio. Not what the public sees until you publish. |
| Live / published | The version on your public web URL after Publish. |
| Studio | The editor screen with chat, phone preview, and tabs (Design, Backend, Release…). |
| Build mode | AI that can change your app. |
| Chat mode | AI that answers questions only — it will not edit. |
| Feature / page | A screen in the app (Home, Store, Form, Custom Page, etc.). |
| Bundle ID | App identity for native builds (e.g. com.studio.yoga). |
| EAS build | Cloud build that produces iOS/Android installable files. |
Two kinds of login (important)
Your Appify login is for the dashboard and studio. That is separate from end-user login inside the apps you build (usually Supabase when you connect a backend).
Connecting Supabase does not change how you sign into Appify.
Draft vs Live in the preview
In the preview you can switch Draft (what you are editing) and Live (last published version). Always publish when you want customers to see changes.
