Code Export
You can seamlessly export your PIES Studio application into working code using this section. Currently, we support Flutter for the UI of your application and Golang for the application backend. You need to make a purchase or code export request, in order to export code.
Go to Host & Export section on the left pane of desired application
Under Code Export section, click New Request. Note: You will only be able to create a new request if you are an admin or if you have purchase access granted by admin

On clicking new request, you will be taken to pricing details page. Here, you will be able to find the cost required to export code for your application. Pricing depends on the total number of objects used in the application. Objects include, Database Tables (excluding system generated tables), Screens, Functions & External REST API Endpoints (under Resources). You will find both individual object pricing and the overall price in this page.
Pricing shown is applicable only for the objects present at the time of code export request. Any objects added post the current code export will not be considered in the downloaded code.

If the payment fails or if the request status is Pending, you can still complete the purchase using Complete Purchase icon. Or, if you wish to delete the existing request, you can do so by clicking delete icon against the desired request.
