Build apps

Own what you build. Any language. Any AI. Your server.

Build retail apps on iVendNext in any language, on your own server, with your own AI if you like. Deliver them to your customers, list them in the App library, set your own price and bill your own customers.

Five ways in, simplest first

Configure

Settings, workflows, print formats and till screens in iVendNext Desk. No code.

Outside app

Your own service, in any language, on your own server, using the API and the event feed of what happens in the stores.

Till key

A key on the till that calls your service and shows the cashier a message or adds details to the sale.

Manifest

Your own records, fields, print formats and workflows, shipped as data that the retailer's administrator installs.

Sandboxed function

Logic compiled to WebAssembly that gives the same answer on the server and on an offline till.

When none of the five fits, you request a new extension point.

Build with your own AI

Describe it. Your AI builds it. Our checks keep it safe.

The kit carries instructions for your coding assistant, and its checks run the same checks your customer's site will run, before anyone sees your app.

What stays yours

  • Your code. In your own repository, private if you like.

  • Your name. Your company's name on every app you make.

  • Your customer. You deliver your app to them.

  • Your price. Set your own price and bill your own customers.

The App library

Retailers find apps at library.ivendnext.app by what they do, their country and their trade. List yours after one review.

A sandbox site

Your own iVendNext site, hosted by us, with demo stores, tills and users, to build and test on before you touch a customer's site.
