Core Concepts

An Invent application is made of this:

  • Pages contain components used in the app 📱 🎚️ ▶️
  • Media are assets used by the app. 🖼️ 🎶 🎥
  • Functions define custom behaviour. ⚙️💪
  • Channels carry messages to coordinate behaviour. 💬📡
  • Datastore keeps state, stores key/value data. ✍️ 📖
  • Tools do background stuff then store results in datastore. 🗜️ 📦

HONK!
