What is a Spark?
A Spark is a lightweight yet powerful integration, script, or extension that enhances one or more Liquidware products, such as ProfileUnity, FlexApp, Stratusphere UX, or CommandCTRL.
Sparks are often designed to solve specific challenges, streamline workflows, or enable connections with third-party platforms. Each Spark is created and shared by the Liquidware community — including Liquidware Subject Matter Experts, Solution Engineers, partners, and customers — to address real-world use cases.
