Developer preferences

Developer preferences allow users to configure how the Application Builder will behave when developing apps in Superblocks.

These preferences are stored in the user's browser via local storage. This means any preferences are:

  • Specific to the developer and are not shared across the account
  • Persisted as the developer switches between applications
Developer preferences panel opened in the left sidebar

You can access developer preferences from the left sidebar navigation, by clicking the gear icon and selecting Preferences.

Settings menu in left sidebar containing developer preferences

caution

Since preferences are stored in your browser, clearing your browser cache will reset any preferences to default.
