It offers a simple way to create, review, and update application files from a tabbed environment. Importante: Starting with the Xanadu release, the legacy version of ServiceNow Studio is being prepared for future deprecation. It will be hidden and no longer activated on new instances but will continue to be supported. For details on the deprecation process, see the [Deprecation Process \[KB0867184\]](https://support.servicenow.com/kb_view.do?sysparm_article=KB0867184) article in the Now Support Knowledge Base. Try building and editing apps in the current version of ServiceNow Studio instead. For more information, see [ServiceNow Studio](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/HJE5fDsb~bjmVZ9BqGtS8w "ServiceNow Studio provides a unified experience for all ServiceNow development activities, enabling admins and developers to extend base system solutions and create custom apps with ease. Use ServiceNow Studio to build apps and app files with integrated tools, access and edit app metadata in scoped and global apps, and package app changes for deployment, all in one powerful development tool."). The system opens the new ServiceNow Studio whenever you edit a custom application. ## Capabilities {#c_ServiceNowStudio__section_bdv_zgh_2hb} * Create an application and application artifacts. * Perform code search. * Integrate with source control. * Create your company's customizations to store applications that belong to other organizations. * Use [Virtual Agent Designer](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=conversation-designer-virtual-agent&version=australia&pubname=australia-conversational-interfaces&ft:locale=en-US) to create and manage topics, which are blueprints for conversations between a virtual agent and a user. You can design topics that help your users resolve common work issues or guide them through self-service tasks. {#c_ServiceNowStudio__ul_ttg_1hh_2hb} Figura 1. Studio With Studio, application developers can: * See exactly what files comprise their application in the Application Explorer. * Add new files to their application using a single Create Application File interface. * Navigate to files using familiar search-by-name or by-type behavior with the Go To dialog. * Find code both within and outside an application using the Code Search tool. * Operate on multiple files at once using the tabbed interface. * Operate on multiple applications at once using multiple studio windows. * Publish their application to company instances or the ServiceNow Store. * View information about their current application from the Status Bar. {#c_ServiceNowStudio__ul_jlp_vcc_dt} ## Which builder should I use to create an app? {#c_ServiceNowStudio__id_rnl_5nv_gbc} Figura 2. Types of builders **Want to build an app easily, without code?**{#c_ServiceNowStudio__p_ils_j1k_ccc} Creator Studio specializes in helping you craft request-fulfillment applications without writing code. For example, an application to request office supplies by filling out a form, and someone approves or denies your request. For more information, see [Exploring Creator Studio](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/cBO_TJOm49HuXK0Ar6ovgw "Creator Studio makes creating apps easier by dividing their creation into simple steps. In this section, we'll explain each one.").{#c_ServiceNowStudio__p_glw_j1k_ccc} **Need a more general app but still want low-code options?**{#c_ServiceNowStudio__p_kyz_j1k_ccc} App Engine Studio lets you build a broader range of apps than Creator Studio without being a programming pro. For more information, see [Exploring App Engine Studio](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/vqHWcxGyU9g4hWEgjiA9Bg "Learn how you can use the low-code app development tool, App Engine Studio (AES), to build powerful applications using guided setup, predefined templates, and workflows.").{#c_ServiceNowStudio__p_rtc_k1k_ccc} **Are you a developer who wants more control in a centralized user interface?**{#c_ServiceNowStudio__p_jhv_k1k_ccc} Build apps smarter and deliver them faster with the new ServiceNow Studio. ServiceNow Studio empowers platform developers with a modern, unified environment for building on the ServiceNow AI Platform. ServiceNow Studio features streamlined navigation to applications and metadata, integrated low-code tools, efficient tracking and packaging of development work that accelerates development processes and enhances productivity. For more information, see [Exploring ServiceNow Studio](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Vc4S95ZeO0gF4S82WDUEsA "ServiceNow Studio delivers a cohesive, efficient experience for platform developers to create, modify, and extend apps. ServiceNow Studio is a single place that you can go to do development work, delivering value to your business faster.").{#c_ServiceNowStudio__p_xpy_k1k_ccc} **Are you a developer who wants to use industry-standard development tools and processes?**{#c_ServiceNowStudio__p_gmb_l1k_ccc} The ServiceNow IDE and ServiceNow SDK support developing applications in source code with ServiceNow Fluent, creating JavaScript modules, and using third-party libraries. ServiceNow Fluent is a domain-specific programming language for creating application metadata in code.{#c_ServiceNowStudio__p_jjf_l1k_ccc} The ServiceNow IDE is an implementation of Visual Studio Code for the Web on the ServiceNow AI Platform. The ServiceNow SDK uses Visual Studio Code Desktop locally.
