Pieces Development

When AP_SYNC_MODE is set to OFFICIAL_AUTO, all pieces are automatically loaded from the cloud API and synced to the database on first launch. This process may take a few seconds to several minutes depending on your internet connection. For local development, pieces are loaded from your local dist folder instead of the database. To enable this, set the AP_DEV_PIECES environment variable with a comma-separated list of pieces. For example, to develop with google-sheets and cal-com: 
AP_DEV_PIECES=google-sheets,cal-com npm start
