Shared platform. Clear ownership.

Keep the boundaries intentional.

Auth owns identity and sessions. IAM owns roles, grants and entitlements. Garden owns billing accounts, usage, invoices, wallets and plans. Applications use the Keystone contract to bring those pieces together.

Good questions.

Start with the right contract.

What is the difference between Keystone and GardenKit?

Keystone is the application-facing platform contract for identity, access and billing. GardenKit is the typed Garden billing SDK and includes a Keystone adapter.

Where should API credentials live?

Configure privileged credentials on your server. Pass the appropriate account context through the platform integration and keep secrets out of browser bundles.

Does the preview show a connected developer account?

No. The website preview uses sample data. Your available developer tools and services depend on your account and deployment.

How do I add an embedded billing interface?

Explore Planter, the React billing experience exported from @l1fe/garden/planter, with data helpers in @l1fe/garden/planter/server.
