This tutorial will guide you through setting up authentication between Retool and Weavy and installing the Weavy components into your Retool account.
Have Retool ready, and let's get started.
You will need:
First we need an environment URL and an API key to communicate with the Weavy backend.
Before you can work with Weavy, you'll need to sign up for an account or sign into your existing account.
The repo contains everything you need to set up and configure authentication and use Weavy as custom components in your Retool app.
