Hello,
An OutSystems application is an assembly of modules (*eSpaces *and Extensions), defined in Service Studio. An application constitutes the minimum deployment unit among environments in LifeTime.

eSpace in OutSystems refers to a module where you develop your application. It is the basic building block of an OutSystems app, containing UI, logic, processes, and data models.

Key Features of an eSpace:

  1. UI Development – Create screens and layouts for web and mobile applications.
  2. Logic Implementation – Define business rules, workflows, and server-side actions.
  3. Database Handling – Design entities and manage data models.
  4. Integrations – Connect with APIs, databases, and external systems.
  5. Reusable Components – Share common functionalities across multiple applications.

How It Works:

  • Each eSpace has its own set of modules but can reference other eSpaces.
  • Multiple developers can work on different eSpaces within a project.
  • Applications usually consist of multiple eSpaces to maintain modularity.

In short, an eSpace is like a project file where you design and develop an OutSystems application.
