Develop applications

Apps are versioned and updated independently of the base — the frozen, certified BSP + Pantavisor runtime layer described in the trust model. A CVE fix in your app ships as a small container layer — not a full-image flash — and never touches the certified base. See the benchmarks for the size and time difference.

Manage applications

• Add your application — pick a path: pull an existing OCI image with pvr, or bake it into the BSP as a Yocto recipe
• Install apps — add containers with the pvr CLI, the pvtx web UI, or remotely via Pantahub
• Configure — overlay files and runtime manifests through the revision workflow
• View — container status, logs, and the pvtx web UI
• Access — enter containers, reach their ports, and wire services with pv-xconnect
• Remove — drop a container from the device state and deploy

Tooling and deeper development

• CLI tools — pvr, pvtx, and pvcontrol cheatsheets and workflows
• Container development — build example containers in the meta-pantavisor Yocto layer
• Pantavisor runtime development — hack on the Pantavisor runtime itself using kas, the Yocto workspace/build tool this layer's KAS configs are written for

For the state, revision, and BSP data model this CLI operates on, see the Reference.
