Build a Webapp

Using Web apps, you can create client based web-applications that use data from CRM and can be used to perform specific tasks.

Building a web app

Once the Zoho CLI is installed, you can start creating your own web app.

Step 1:

Once the CLI is installed, run this command to create a new project.

$zet init

Step 2:

Select a Zoho service and give a Name for the widget which you want to create. In this case, select Catalyst as the service.
The sample project will be created in the respective folder directory.

Step 3:

To open the sample project, run the following command:

cd {Project_name}

Now, you can start desiging and including the UI components for the Widget.

Step 4:

The app_file.html file contains the structure, design and components of the Web app. You can create your web app from the HTML file.

Step 5:

Once you have created the web apps, you can host the web apps locally and test it.
To host the web apps locally:

$zet run
