About Velo Packages

Velo packages are code libraries written using Velo code that allow you to add specific functionality to a site without spending hours writing complex code. They provide ready-made functionality that you can use as-is or extend with custom code. Although Velo packages are written using Velo APIs, you can use them alongside the Wix JavaScript SDK.

What you can do with Velo packages

• Add production-ready features maintained by Wix
• Reduce boilerplate and implementation time
• Use package APIs on the frontend or backend depending on the package
• Combine package capabilities with SDK modules and a site's business logic

Package content

Velo packages can include read-only backend code files, public code files, and npm packages. An editable config.json file may also be included for defining specific settings for your package.

A package's functionality is available through its exported APIs, which you can import and call in your code.
