How do I update my Homey app manifest for SDK v3 compatibility?▼

Updating a Homey app manifest for SDK v3 involves following specific rules for app.json generation, compose files, and firmware compatibility to meet validation and runtime constraints for publishable releases.

What is the process for adding a new driver to a Homey app?▼

Adding a new driver to a Homey app requires configuring driver compose files and capabilities according to SDK v3 conventions. Proper driver setup ensures correct device behavior and seamless integration with the Homey platform.

How do I validate and prepare a Homey app for App Store publishing?▼

Validating a Homey app for App Store publishing requires running build, lint, and versioning checks. Meeting these App Store readiness checks ensures your app passes validation and complies with publishing workflows.

Can I use this to troubleshoot Homey flow card registration issues?▼
