Creating Solutions
Introduction
This section provides information and guidance on how to develop solutions that you can sell both on and off the Mendix Marketplace.
What Is a Solution?
A solution is any Mendix app that is suitable to be sold to multiple different customers. This means the app is built to match the needs and expectations of a wider range of customers, and also configurable at runtime to better cater to their needs. In this case, general Mendix development best practices apply, and you can get started building a solution with any template available on the Mendix Platform.
Customers often require more from a solution than it supports out of the box. Whether it is an integration with an existing system in the customer’s IT landscape, a change to better match the processes of the customer, or simply an adjusted UI to better match the brand of the customer, these adaptations require more than just a prescriptive software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution. This means you need to enable the solution to be adapted so that it can fit the specific needs of a customer.
For more details on how to combine out-of-the-box logic with customer adaptations, see Introduction to Adaptable Solutions.
