Object Studio
The Local-First IDE for ObjectStack
Object Studio
The Control Center for your ObjectStack.
Object Studio is a local-first Graphical User Interface (GUI) that runs on your machine. It connects to your local Engine instance and visualizes your entire stack.
It is NOT a cloud dashboard. It is a desktop-class tool that respects your data privacy.
Why a Studio?
We believe that Infrastructure as Code is great for deployment, but Visual Tools are superior for exploration and debugging. Object Studio bridges this gap.
- It does not hide the code. It visualizes it.
- Changes made in Studio are written back to your local YAML files.
- Changes made in VS Code are instantly reflected in Studio.

Driver Manager

Studio writes the config, updates your package.json, and hot-reloads the Engine.
