For developers

Why build on Habitat?

Habitat provides core infrastructure that is replicated across any product built today, such as user identities, authentication, permissions, and data syncing. We aim to get these primitives right so developers can focus on what matters most to users: the product experience. Additionall, because Habitat is built around concepts of data ownership and interoperability, products build on Habitat can naturally integrate and interoperate with each other, delivering product experiences that are much harder to build on the web today. In short, the reasons to build on Habitat are:

  • skip rebuilding auth, permissions, etc.
  • no cold start from the data perspective
  • give your customers more usability out of their data
