Develop apps collaboratively

The collaborative development is facilitated by the Git for apps feature in the VS Code extension. The supported operations are documented in this section.

Prerequisites

To start the collaborative development, ensure that you have set up the testing and production app versions by following this article.

Every collaborating developer should have their testing app in Make, connected to the local app from the Git repository.

Manage testing and production app versions

Roles

• Owner of the production app - Every app in Make can be owned by a single Make account. The owner of the production app manages the deployment of the new local app version to the Make app.

• Developers of testing apps - Each developer manages their own testing app in Make, which is connected to the local app from the Git repository.
