# App Framework

Auterion's App Framework allows developers to build applications that can later be installed on Auterion-powered devices such as [skynode](https://docs.auterion.com/hardware-integration/skynode "mention")and [ai-node](https://docs.auterion.com/hardware-integration/ai-node "mention").

The App Framework comes with [auterion-cli](https://docs.auterion.com/app-development/app-development/application-development), a tool for building and installing apps, as well as for interacting with Auterion devices in a few other ways.

For the implementation of applications Auterion is offering the [auterion-sdk](https://docs.auterion.com/app-development/auterion-sdk "mention"), which allows app developers to directly control drones running APX4 using ROS2.
