Reference
This section collects detailed background information, technical specifications, and advanced usage notes for Thymis. It is intended as a companion to the task‑oriented guides in Device Lifecycle and Your Project in Thymis, providing precise definitions, architectural details, and UI field references.
Use it when you need to:
- Understand how Thymis works internally (see Concepts for definitions of devices, deployments, configurations, modules, tags, secrets, and more).
- Learn about supported hardware and how device types are added.
- Review administration topics for self‑hosted controllers, such as Firewall Rules and system architecture.
- Check the UI reference for what each button and field does (Build, Update, Commit, Deploy, Tasks, etc.).
If you are just getting started, you may not need the Reference section right away — but when you run into a question like “What exactly is a Deployment in Thymis?” or “How do I add VNC to my own module?”, this section is the place to look.
