Getting Started
This is the entry point for everyone building on or integrating with revenexx Revenue Cloud — a multi-tenant B2B commerce platform. Whether you're writing a custom app, automating an ERP sync, or building a storefront, the pages in this section give you the mental model and the practical steps to get going.
Who this documentation is for
The Developer Portal is written for the people who build with revenexx — not the merchants who use it day-to-day. If one of these descriptions sounds like you, you're in the right place:
- Backend developers writing custom apps that ship as cloud functions and extend the platform's business logic (orders, pricing, customer segments, …).
- Frontend developers building customer-facing storefronts on Nuxt 4, either composing pages visually with Blökkli or going fully custom against the platform APIs.
- Integration engineers connecting customers' enterprise systems (SAP, Salesforce, Salsify, …) to revenexx using visual workflows — no glue code.
- Solution architects and partners evaluating the platform, planning an integration project, or scoping a custom commerce build for an end customer.
End customers (the merchants running their business in Cockpit) and their buyers (the people placing orders in storefronts) are not the audience here. They have separate, task-oriented documentation in Cockpit itself.
How to read this section
The pages below build on each other. If you're new, read them in order — each takes 5–10 minutes:
- Platform Overview — Start here. What revenexx Revenue Cloud is, who uses it, the six Studios that make up the product, and the kinds of things you can build. Read this first, even if you came looking for code.
- Architecture Overview — How the platform fits together: the layers you build on, how each tenant's data stays isolated, and how a request flows through the platform end-to-end.
- Quick Start — Hands-on: install the CLI, authenticate, scaffold a project, deploy your first cloud function. ~15 minutes.
- Prerequisites — A checklist of accounts, tokens, and tools you need before you can run the Quick Start.
- Glossary — Reference: every domain term used across the docs (Tenant, App, Cockpit, Studio, Manifest, …). Skim once, come back when something doesn't click.
After Getting Started, branch into one of the product areas based on what you're building:
- Writing an app? → App Marketplace
- Building an integration? → Integration Studio
- Building a storefront? → Storefronts
In one sentence
revenexx Revenue Cloud lets you build, integrate, and operate B2B commerce systems — without writing the same multi-tenancy, identity, and workflow plumbing that every commerce project rebuilds from scratch. The next page explains what that means in practice.
