Developer Mode

Flow-Like starts in a simplified view. Building tools stay hidden until you switch on Developer Mode, so you can use apps, browse the store, and manage your files without the full builder surface in the way.

If you are looking for something and cannot find it, this switch is almost always the reason.

With Developer Mode off, Flow-Like hides:

  • Developer Tools in the sidebar (WASM node package development)
  • The Packages tab in the store and the package Registry in settings
  • Most tabs inside a project’s configuration: Flows, Events, Templates, Widgets, Data Studio, User Storage, Packages, Suites, Roles, Sales, Analytics, Endpoints, and Publication — the project keeps its Dashboard, Configuration, Runtime Variables, Storage, and Team pages
  • Sinks & Triggers, Board Statistics, and the API Token page in settings and the account menu
  • Store listing, compliance, and release panels in the project dashboard

With Developer Mode on, everything above is visible — the full builder experience.

Hiding is purely visual: direct links to these pages keep working, and your roles and permissions are not affected.

The last step of the welcome tour asks whether you plan to build. Flip the switch there and Flow-Like starts in the full builder view right away:

You can change your mind anytime. Open Settings from the sidebar footer and scroll to the Developer section:

Toggle Enable developer mode:

Developer Mode is stored on your Flow-Like account, so it follows you across devices. If you toggle it while offline or signed out, the change applies immediately on that device and is pushed to your account the next time you sign in.
