Atym Dev Zone
Welcome to the Atym Dev Zone, your comprehensive resource for building, deploying, and managing containerized applications on edge devices. This documentation provides everything you need to get started and succeed with Atym.
The Atym Dev Zone offers hands-on tutorials, detailed guides, API references, and sample applications to help you quickly move from concept to deployment. Our goal is to make edge development as accessible and efficient as cloud development, and this documentation is your companion throughout that journey.
The Atym Dev Zone gives you hands-on access to the Atym Hub and Runtime. With the Dev Zone, you can:
- Access the Atym Hub UI and CLI to manage your devices and deployments.
- Build and deploy containerized applications on up to three devices selected from the Atym development board list.
- Learn from comprehensive developer resources complete with step-by-step guides, sample code, API documentation and more.
Dev Zone access is available to all Atym users and supports both free and paid tiers. While the free tier limits usage to a small number of supported development devices, it includes most of Atym’s core capabilities—making it well suited for learning the platform, validating designs, and prototyping edge applications before scaling to production hardware and larger fleets.
Need to prototype at a larger scale or work with specific hardware? The Atym team is happy to help—reach out to Atym sales to discuss your requirements.
