summary: >-
  Zoho CRM's client-side surface is "widgets" — embeddable UI that runs INSIDE the
  Zoho CRM interface at eight defined mount points — plus an embedded-app JS SDK for
  putting Zoho CRM inside a third-party product. This is the inverse of the more
  common pattern (a vendor's component embedded in the customer's app): most of what
  Zoho ships embeds the CUSTOMER's UI in Zoho.

    note: >-
      Zoho documents the JS SDK by version path (v1.5) on zohocrm.dev but publishes
      no npm package and no versioned CDN URL on the widgets overview page, so a
      consumer cannot pin a build. The GitHub repo github.com/zoho/zcrm-js-sdk (last
      pushed 2024-10-15) is the closest thing to a distributable.

      Distributed from GitHub only; no npm package resolved under any of
      @zohocrm/embedded-app-sdk, zohocrm-embedded-app-sdk or zcrmsdk-js, so there is
      no registry metadata endpoint to read a version or date from.
