AppTown tour

Follow a small team's apps from a request to a checked change. Conversations are recorded examples; the checks run against real example code. Back to apptown.dev.

A perfectly sensible beginning

The cycling club has a newsletter and a ride calendar. Useful, but Tom has an idea.

Turn the neon up

Same club, louder shirt. Tom asks for an exuberant makeover while keeping the pages and links working. These are the actual example pages, rendered before and after the change.

Home

See your apps, recent work and anything that needs your attention. This example leaves one style check to fix and one approval to give.

Projects

The team's apps, each with its way of working and what is running.

Start an app

Describe the app you want. AppTown suggests a name, then helps you choose how to build it and where to keep its code.

An app's page

What the app is, its open changes, and where it runs.

Chat with the helper

Say what you want changed. A coding agent works on its own copy of the app, runs the tests, and says when there is something to try.

A change, checked

Review what changed and what the checks found. Here, the tests passed but a style check needs fixing.

Infrastructure

The machines and services apps run on, and how much room each has.

Conformance

See whether each app follows your team's ways of working, and what to fix. Some checks here need services the example does not run, so their results are shown as incomplete.

Ways of working

Share guidance, checks and workflows across your apps.

Usage

See token use and how long each step takes, including time waiting for approval.

People

Choose who can use AppTown and what they can do.

Docs

The guides ship with AppTown and open inside it.
