description: Extend Twenty with code — custom objects, server-side logic, UI components, and AI agents, all as TypeScript packages.
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
|
|
Most CRMs give you a config panel. Twenty gives you a platform. Apps are how developers extend Twenty beyond what the UI offers — defining data models, server-side logic, UI components, and AI capabilities as code, then deploying them to one or more workspaces.
|
|
|
|
## Why apps exist
|
|
|
|
Workflows cover no-code automation. But some things need code: a custom pricing engine, a proprietary enrichment pipeline, a compliance check that runs on every record update, a custom UI panel that pulls data from an internal tool.
|
|
|
|
Apps let you build these as first-class extensions — not brittle scripts talking to an API from outside, but code that runs on the platform with full access to the type system, permission model, and UI.
|
|
|
|
## What an app can define
|
|
|
|
An app is a TypeScript package that declares **entities** using the `twenty-sdk`:
|
|
|
|
| Entity | What it does |
|
|
|--------|-------------|
|
|
| **Objects & Fields** | New data tables and fields on existing objects — same treatment as built-in ones |
|
|
| **Logic Functions** | Server-side TypeScript triggered by HTTP routes, cron schedules, or database events |
|
|
| **Front Components** | Sandboxed React components that render inside Twenty's UI (side panel, widgets, command menu) |
|
|
| **Skills & Agents** | AI capabilities — reusable instructions and autonomous assistants |
|
|
| **Views & Navigation** | Pre-configured list views and sidebar menu items |
|
|
|
|
Everything is detected via AST analysis at build time — no config files, no registration boilerplate. Put a `export default defineObject(...)` in any `.ts` file and the SDK picks it up.
|
|
|
|
## How they run
|
|
|
|
- **Logic functions** execute in isolated Node.js processes, sandboxed from the host. They access data through a typed API client scoped to the app's role permissions.
|
|
- **Front components** run in Web Workers using Remote DOM — sandboxed from the main page but rendering native DOM elements (not iframes).
|
|
- **Permissions** are enforced at the API level. An app only sees what its role allows.
|
|
|
|
## The developer experience
|
|
|
|
You write your app as a TypeScript project on your machine. The CLI watches your source files and live-syncs them to a running Twenty server — edit a file, see the change in the UI within a second. The typed API client regenerates automatically when the schema changes. When you're ready, `yarn twenty app:publish --private` pushes to a production server, or `yarn twenty app:publish` lists your app on npm and the Twenty marketplace.
