Quickstart

Welcome

Qodly is a global platform for developing, deploying, and running web applications. It consists of three main components:

• Studio: Develop and test your application.
• Qodly Server: Backend including a database, a Web Server, and ORDA.
• Cloud Console: Manage your deployments.

Everything you need is included in your subscription. You can create your application from start to finish without installing anything. You can also extend your widgets by building or installing custom components in Qodly Studio.

The best way to start is by creating your Sandbox. It's completely free and perfect for trying out Qodly, exploring samples, and testing new features. You can even create a quick demo for your client before beginning your application. You'll have the option to clone it or start from scratch.

Create your Sandbox

Creating your Sandbox is the first step for your journey in Qodly.

1. Choose a Template to create your sandbox application. Two options are available:

   • Create a sandbox from scratch: Select the Blank app template to begin with an empty sandbox application.
   • Create a sandbox from a sample: Start with a sample application containing code and data for reference.
     
     
   

You can delete and reinstall it as needed. The only limitation is one sandbox per user.
