Local Development Dashboard

Encore provides an efficient local development workflow that automatically provisions local infrastructure and supports automated testing with dedicated test infrastructure.

The local environment also comes with a built-in Local Development Dashboard to simplify development and improve productivity. It has several features to help you design, develop, and debug your application:

• Service Catalog with Automatic API Documentation
• API Explorer to call your APIs
• Distributed Tracing for simple and powerful debugging
• Encore Flow for visualizing your microservices architecture

All these features update in real-time as you make changes to your application.

To access the dashboard, start your Encore application with encore run and it will open automatically. You can also follow the link in your terminal:

$ encore run
