Developer Mode

Overview

This page allows users to test the "Development Version" of any given app.

Transactional data from these test runs, including table records and app completions, are NOT stored in the Tulip database. Instead, they are stored in the tab of the browser. When the tab is deleted, the data is also erased.

Users can also toggle the station, user and step within any given app in order to test different scenarios.
