title: DayPilot UI Builder Public Generation API
summary: Discovery, validation, and stateless project generation for the subset exposed by DayPilot UI Builder.
description: This API describes the components, targets, settings, and canonical option IDs that UI Builder can configure and generate. Agents can validate a strict project specification and receive its deterministic ZIP without saving a server-side resource. It is not a complete DayPilot product capability taxonomy. A capability absent from this API must not be interpreted as unsupported by DayPilot.

summary: Validate and fully preflight a Builder project specification
description: Prepares and validates the complete immutable project tree without saving a configuration, project, job, or archive. This generation-tree preflight does not install dependencies, certify dependency security, or run the generated project's build, lint, tests, or browser runtime. Omitted applicable settings use defaults from the pinned catalog revision. The fixed request-body maximum is 64 KiB.
