Onfido for Developers

Onfido's Developer Hub provides a vast, and varied array of content aimed at all levels of expertise from onboarding quick-start guides to comprehensive technical reference pages. Yet the Developer Hub is more than content alone, with links to custom built client libraries, developer tools and input-capture SDKs, it encompasses all developer needs in a single location. A user-centric approach has resulted in a portal that is designed and written to provide a seamless, easy entry point into Onfido's services, resulting in top class developer experience for users.

 

Q&A

  • What effort went into creating this portal?
  • Who owns the portal?
  • Who writes the documentations?
  • What were the main factors in the decision to not require a login on your portal, and how do you feel that decision has worked out?
