If you want to use Polypad within your own applications, there are two integration options: using iFrames hosted by Amplify, or a white-labelled JavaScript API that can be self-hosted and can be embedded in other websites or apps. Developers can customise the features and behaviour though numerous options and event listeners, and interact with the canvas programmatically to build custom functionality.
