Understanding the fundamentals of Central

A Central project is like a container for all applications you create and any resources and services provisioned for the project.
A project can contain one or more applications registered to it (for example, the game application and mobile companion app for it). The core function of the application is to manage access for users.
Any application should have an application schema created. Application schema, in a general sense, is the set of roles and permissions by which an application is accessed. Each role has its own set of permissions, which can be customized to meet the needs of a particular group of users.
An application allows you to generate Application API keys to make authorized server-side requests in the name of the application.
Connecting services to the project, you can provide extended functionality for your applications, for example, a service for publishing content, community bug reporting, forums, and so on.
