# Create connectors for new apps

> Learn how to build connectors for new applications and tools

## Coming Soon

We're working on comprehensive documentation for building Speckle connectors. This guide will cover everything you need to create connectors for new applications and integrate them with the Speckle platform.

## What You'll Learn

When available, this documentation will include:

* **Connector Architecture** - Understanding how connectors work with Speckle
* **Development Setup** - Setting up your development environment
* **Data Conversion** - Converting application data to Speckle objects
* **Sending & Receiving** - Implementing send and receive workflows
* **UI Integration** - Building user interfaces for connector settings
* **Testing & Deployment** - Testing your connector and making it available

## Interested in Building a Connector?

If you're interested in building a connector for an application that doesn't have one yet, we'd love to hear from you!
