#041 - Introducing the NAB Developer Console
SUMMARY: In this session the CNX Dev Team demonstrated the all-new NAB Developer Console, through which you can monitor everything going on within your Nitro App Builder-based applications. From back-end program calls and executed SQL statements to app variable changes and fired events, this new tool integrated directly into the Valence Portal makes it easy to understand all the behind-the-scenes operations taking place in your apps. This feature was introduced in the latest Valence build, 6.3.20250108.1.
