The apps/api directory houses webhooks, cron jobs, and external integrations behind a dedicated endpoint, separate from the main application.

​
Overview

A standalone API gives non-web consumers (mobile apps, third-party services, IoT devices) their own endpoint. On Vercel, serverless functions scale independently regardless of how you split them. A separate app keeps concerns apart and routing clean.
