Marketplace / app directory
- Adobe Exchange (exchange.adobe.com) is Adobe's app directory for Experience Cloud; the listing UI is JavaScript-rendered, so the number of AEM Assets apps is Unknown S91.
- How extensions are built: Adobe App Builder apps (serverless on I/O Runtime) extend the Admin view and Assets view through UI extension points; Adobe publishes templates for Assets view browse/details and Content Advisor extensions S87 S1. Assets view UI extensibility is a Beta program with an internal GenAI extension generator S37.
- Content Advisor (formerly the Asset Selector micro-frontend) embeds approved-asset search/selection into Adobe and third-party apps (React, Angular, Vanilla JS) S30 S66 S87.
- Custom integrations use the OpenAPI-based APIs + AEM Events (see API) S11 S9.
