description: Build Zalo Mini Apps - lightweight web apps running inside Zalo super-app. This skill provides ZaUI components (Button, Input, Modal, Tabs, Avatar, etc.), JavaScript APIs (authorize, getUserInfo, getPhoneNumber, getLocation, Storage, Camera), Checkout SDK for payments, design guidelines, and development tools. Use when building Mini Apps, using ZaUI components, calling Zalo APIs, integrating payments, converting web apps to Mini Apps, or following Zalo design standards.

  <Page>
    <Header title="Home" />
    <List>
      <List.Item title="Item" suffix={<Icon icon="zi-chevron-right" />} />
    </List>
  </Page>
  <BottomNavigation fixed>
    <BottomNavigation.Item key="home" label="Home" icon={<Icon icon="zi-home" />} />
  </BottomNavigation>
</App>
