Empowering App Innovation: Introducing the new IGEL App Creator Portal

With the launch of IGEL App Creator Portal™, IGEL takes another major step toward simplifying and accelerating the creation, distribution, and management of applications across the IGEL ecosystem. IGEL App Creator Portal now serves as the central hub for partners, developers, and customers to onboard and package both their own and third-party applications for IGEL OS. It introduces an enhanced user experience, new collaboration capabilities, and improved performance designed to make app creation faster, more secure, and more scalable.

A smarter, simpler way to build Apps:

IGEL App Creator Portal 12.8 brings a modern, streamlined design and new tools that empower users to manage their entire app lifecycle in one place.

Highlights include:

Modernized UI/UX for an intuitive, efficient workflow.

“My Archive” area to store, rebuild, or remove apps and recipes.

Guided App Submission Workflow that lets IGEL Ready and other technology partners submit apps directly to IGEL and track progress through validation and publishing.

Integrated IGEL OS 12 App SDK and Packager for local or cloud-based app builds.

Private Key Signing Option for customers who prefer local signing and data control.

Enhanced Build Engine and Log Downloads for improved performance and transparency.

Designed for Collaboration and Scale:

The new release focuses on more than just features — it’s about empowering collaboration across the entire IGEL community. Partners can now publish apps faster, customers can build and validate their own solutions, and developers gain deeper visibility into their builds with improved logs and tools. For organizations, the App Creator Portal bridges the gap between flexibility and control — delivering enterprise-grade scalability while maintaining simplicity.

Looking ahead

The IGEL App Creator Portal 12.8 release is only the beginning. IGEL continues to evolve its Cloud Services Platform, extending automation, partner enablement, and integration with upcoming releases.
