Databricks Applications

Build Python-based Databricks applications. For full examples and recipes, see the Databricks Apps Cookbook.

AppKit (Preferred for New Apps)

AppKit is the recommended SDK for new Databricks apps. It is a TypeScript + React SDK with a plugin architecture, built-in caching, telemetry, and end-to-end type safety.

Requirements

• Node.js v22+
• Databricks CLI v0.295.0+

Scaffold a new app

databricks apps init
