# Catalyst CodeLib

### What is Catalyst CodeLib?

[Catalyst CodeLib solutions](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/codelib/introduction/) are pre-packaged microservices that you can directly plug in to your application logic to solve certain use cases or to enhance the functionality of your applications with minimal efforts from your end. You can access all Catalyst CodeLib solutions available to be readily implemented from their [GitHub repositories](https://github.com/catalystbyzoho/). 

Each package in the repo contains a README file that provides details about the functionality and usage of that solution. You can also access CodeLib in the Catalyst console by navigating to the bottom left corner in your project. Open **CodeLib** and click on the tile of the solution you require to learn about the steps in implementing it.
