Great low‑code outcomes start with the right primitives. App Engine provides the workspace for modeling data, UIs, and experiences; Flow Designer orchestrates logic with reusable subflows and human approvals; and IntegrationHub standardizes connections to third‑party systems via spokes. Together, they make it practical to deliver enterprise-grade apps without reinventing the stack for every project. Design patterns matter: favor table‑driven configuration over hardcoded rules, encapsulate integrations in spokes, and use flow actions that your teams can compose repeatedly. For cross‑system work, align on a canonical data model early and document source‑of‑truth ownership to prevent later refactoring pain. And don’t forget lifecycle: define environments (dev/test/prod), promote changes via update sets or application repos, and automate regression testing with platform testing tools before go‑live. This combination lets product teams focus on outcomes—case resolution time, onboarding turnaround, compliance throughput—while the platform handles authentication, auditing, and performance. When you standardize on these building blocks, every new app gets faster to build and easier to support.
