# Welcome to the Ignite Marketplace App repository.
We are building Ignite app integrations for builders to use and inviting app creators to integrate with Ignite.

The app directory has two components, official Ignite app integrations and community submitted app integrations. You can read more about building an Ignite app in the official documentation to learn more.

## Official Ignite apps
These apps have been built by the core Ignite engineering team.
You can also submit your community built app to be reviewed by the team and merged into the official app section.
## Community build apps
>If you have an app you’d like to see included in Ignite, here’s how you can get started:

The easiest way is to open a PR template (Community app) that provides a ‘get started’ template that you can build out.
If you prefer, you can build your app in your own GitHub repository, and submit it to the Ignite app repository to be included in the ‘Community app’ folder
Once submitted, if you wish to have it reviewed and merged into the Ignite official apps folder, please indicate this in your submission and the team will review and provide feedback

## How to install an App

>For example, to install Hermes functionality on your currently installed version of Ignite, please use this command:

`ignite app install -g github.com/ignite/apps/hermes`

To learn more, please see: [Installing Ignite Apps](https://docs.ignite.com/apps/using-apps)

## How to create an App

Apps for ingite can be scaffolded with one simple command:

`ignite scaffold app path/to/your/app`

To learn more, please see: [Creating Ignite Apps](https://https://docs.ignite.com/apps/developing-apps)

## How to get started:

* Test out the ‘Hello World’ app for beginners
* Test out the ‘Hermes’ and ‘Explorer’ apps for more advanced implementations
* Identify the application you would like to add to the Community app section
* Take a look at the Ignite App template pull request on the formatting structure
* Fork the repo
* Build the app and add the ‘XXX’ label to be queried
* Request to the team for review if desired
