# Apps Overview

Apps allow you to add new functionalities on top of Saleor and integrate it with third-party services.

They can be [installed, managed, and rendered in Saleor Dashboard](/developer/extending/apps/extending-dashboard-with-apps.md).

On the technical level, Apps are technology-agnostic clients that communicate with Saleor through webhooks and API.

tip

[Saleor App Store](/developer/app-store/overview.md) is a Saleor Cloud feature that allows adding extensions with a single click.
