This is a general question regarding API stability and documentation. Clearly with the project <1.0 no guarantees can be made and I expect the API to change rapidly during development. But a stable API would allow for third party extensions utilizing Drop.

In particular I was interested in a SteamDeck Drop client that would allow downloading games onto a steamdeck and automatically add them to the steam client to play.

It would also be good to fully document the API (around the time it is stabilized) to ease other developers integrating with drop

@DecDuck commented on GitHub (Nov 30, 2025):

Yep, as pre-release software we don't make any guarantees about the API stability, but we do try to keep things as stable as possible.

We are currently in the process of documenting the various APIs and third party tools here: https://developer.droposs.org/
