Questions
What the village gets asked most.
About Armori.ca
A platform where you make mobile apps by describing what you want. Panoramisk, an AI agent, writes the app; you see it right away in the preview and on your phone, and can build it for the App Store and Google Play.
Armori.ca is the ancient name for the north-west of Gaul, Gaulish for "by the sea". It's home to the indomitable village from Asterix and Obelix. The names are a wink at the comics; Armori.ca is a product of Ster Software.
Your app's AI agent, named after the druid Getafix (Panoramix in French). He writes the code, checks the result in the preview, asks when in doubt and saves every step as a version. More about Panoramisk.
The AI by Anthropic. It's the "magic potion" Panoramisk brews with: Claude understands your request and writes the code.
Making your app
No. You describe what you want and point at what should change in the preview. If you can code, you can also edit the code yourself in the code editor.
Mobile apps for iPhone and Android, built with Expo and React Native: screens, tab navigation, lists, forms, animations, and an API with a database of their own.
A real app. Every app is a regular Expo project with Expo Router, its own git history and pinned package versions.
Every step is a version. Restore an earlier version with one click, or fork from a version to try something else. You can also stop Panoramisk at any time; whatever he already changed is kept as a version.
He only writes in the app he's working on. He can read other apps in the same workspace, for example to reuse something, but not change them.
Yes. Ask for a logo with /logo; Armori.ca automatically turns it into the app icon, favicon and splash screen.
Data and security
Every app has its own SQLite database on the Armori.ca server. You can look inside in the Database tab.
No. EXPO_PUBLIC variables are bundled into the app and can be read by anyone who has it. Never put secret keys there.
Every request runs in its own isolated process, with limits on memory and time, and can only reach public addresses on the internet.
Phone and stores
Scan the QR code in the editor with Armori.ca Go. Your app then runs natively on your phone and loads every new version by itself. More about Armori.ca Go.
Yes. You build a TestFlight build for iOS, or an .apk and .aab for Android. The .aab is the bundle for Google Play. More about building.
No. The build runs on a builder, a Mac linked to Armori.ca. You follow the build live in your browser.
An Apple developer account. An owner of your workspace adds the Apple credentials in the settings, and you create the app once yourself in App Store Connect; Apple's API can't do that.
Working together
Yes. Invite people to your workspace and give them a role: owner, editor or viewer. You see live who is in an app. More about collaborating.
Watch the editor and the preview, without changing anything or asking Panoramisk anything.
Yes, to a workspace where you're allowed to build. The database moves along.
