# Apps

In Laioutr, every integration is an **app**. An app connects the storefront with a commerce platform, a CMS, a search service, a tracking tool or a hosting and payment provider. Laioutr supports 50+ backends and 300+ integrations.

The area shows how apps are installed and configured, which credentials are needed and how to check the connection with real data in Studio. Each app page describes the flow, the configuration and common errors from the user's point of view.
