Three device frames. Live iframe rendering. Instant design sync.
iPhone (375×812), Android (360×780), and iPad (768×1024) device frames render the actual Navigator portal — not a static mockup. Portrait and landscape orientation. Dark mode toggle. Design changes reflect on save without rebuild.
Four metrics. Six quick-action tiles. Publish state with timestamp.
Total apps configured, published count, cumulative PWA installs, and push subscriber count — all updated on page load. Quick-action routing to Identity, Design, Portals, Install & Share, Preview, and Push — single-click navigation. Per-app overview with publish/draft status badge, theme color swatch, start portal, timestamp, and scannable QR code.
Five color channels. 15 typefaces. Three dark mode behaviors.
App name (200 char), short name (12 char), description (500 char), and 512×512 PNG icon with auto-generated 192×192 standard and maskable variants. Five configurable color channels: theme, background, secondary, dark theme, dark background. Independent heading and body typeface selection from 15 options. Dark mode: auto (device preference), always light, or always dark.
Publish from the dashboard. Live on the home screen on next visit.
Zero app store review. Zero resubmission. Zero build cycle. Design changes propagate on publish — no binary download required. Every update that skips the store review queue reaches users in seconds, not weeks.
