Deployment modes

App Builder supports two deployment modes for CI applications. Each mode determines how the application interacts with the ThinOS operating system and impacts security and stability.

Table 1. Supported deployment modesSupported deployment modes
Mode Description Recommended Use
Isolated Mode Runs apps in a secure, containerized environment. Prevents conflicts with ThinOS base OS. The default choice for most deployments. Enhances security and stability.
Native Mode Runs apps directly on ThinOS OS with full system access. Higher risk of dependency conflicts and security exposure. Only for trusted, production-ready apps. Requires .deb packages to be added to the Native Mode allowlist. Here is an example of how to add an application to the allowlist using ThinOS App Builder.
NOTE: It is recommended using Isolated Mode for app deployment to avoid system vulnerabilities or library conflicts.
NOTE:Previewing or building native applications directly impacts the underlying operating system. Use these features with caution, as any misconfiguration or error may affect OS stability or functionality.
