Understanding the application structure

Understanding the application structure

In order to make things easier to manage, AppMail is divided into several small sub-apps, like the backend, customer, Api, console and frontend app.

The backend app is used for administrative tasks and here only the system users have access.

The customer app is used to create manage emails lists, subscribers and campaigns.

The console app is the heavy worker, it contains all the cron jobs commands that are executed on various intervals to run maintenance, send campaigns, process bounces and so on.

The frontend app is used for public facing actions, like showing the subscription forms.

The Api app is used to allow custom integrations from various other apps with your own app, like customers sending subscribers from external systems to their lists. You can disable it any any time.
