Internal Developer Documentation

A collection of documentation covering the Arc XP unified mobile SDK and sample projects.

Backend Setup

Before any of Arc XP's services can be used, a backend must be ready to connect to. See the reference below for more details. If you're only developing for iOS and Android platforms, you shouldn't need to do any backend setup, and will simply need the backend configuration details to use the SDK. 

Mobile SDK

Arc XP's mobile SDK allows access to Arc XP services and content, for Android and iOS applications. Access to the various services and media is available via a single SDK, documentation can be found around the following modules (commerce/content being optional).
