App Maker Editor

There is nothing special about App Maker Editor, it is an ordinary web app that allows you to create other web apps and publish them, what leads us to App Maker's runtime.

App Maker Runtime

App Maker uses Apps Script as runtime for apps built with it. In other words App Maker creates an Apps Script project for app's deployments. Why is it important? Because it means that App Maker apps have almost the same powers as Apps Script apps such as tight integration with lots of Google Services and Google Cloud Platform. OK.... you can ask "How Google Cloud Platform is related to App Maker and App Script?". Well, every Apps Script project (i.e. App Maker deployment) is bound to Google Cloud Platform project and the most trivial usages of GCP are logging, database access (Cloud SQL), configuring extra services, API keys, etc...
