brackets-curlySDeveloper Portal

Overview

SDeveloper Portal is the developer integration hub of the Sverse ecosystem. It enables developers, studios, and technical partners to build applications and experiences on top of Sverse without rebuilding identity, asset, or economic infrastructure from scratch.

The portal represents the transition of Sverse from a standalone product into an open, extensible platform.

This document follows the buildos.work product development framework:

Vision → Value → User → Use Case → MVP Boundary


1. Vision

A digital ecosystem can only scale when external builders can create on top of it faster, cheaper, and more safely than building everything themselves.

SDeveloper Portal is not simply an API documentation site. It is the gateway through which Sverse becomes a platform, allowing others to extend the ecosystem while preserving consistency, security, and governance.

Its purpose is to enable growth through collaboration, not uncontrolled expansion.

A single integration approach should work across multiple applications.

User Cases

  • Use one SDK for multiple products

  • Reuse asset definitions across experiences

  • Maintain consistent identity across apps


Value 3: Composable Platform Capabilities

Developers should be able to adopt Sverse incrementally.

User Cases

  • Use only identity services

  • Use only marketplace functionality

  • Combine assets with rewards and progression


Value 4: Visibility and Operational Insight

Developers should understand how their applications perform within the ecosystem.

User Cases

  • Track active users per application

  • Monitor asset usage and adoption

  • Observe revenue generated through integration


Value 5: Control and Governance

Opening the platform must not compromise stability or trust.

User Cases

  • Manage API keys and credentials

  • Separate development and production environments

  • Comply with ecosystem rules and policies
