Workbench overview
A tour of the project workspace: chat, platforms, preview, the More menu (code, Asset Studio, publishing, backend), the header and the team.
The workbench is where you build a project, at /chat/:id. Chat is on the left; the preview and tools are on the right.
Layout
| Area | What it holds |
|---|---|
| Chat | Your conversation with the agent or the team. See Chat. |
| Platform bar | Your iOS and Android apps, a + to add another platform, and More |
| Preview | The live simulator and its toolbar. See Live preview. |

The More menu
More opens the project's tools:

|---|---|
| Analytics | Usage events of your app. See Analytics. |
