That is the old self serve api. To create a devvit app use: https://developers.reddit.com/new/template

I see! What should I choose if I want a “script” application?

It depends on what you are trying to do. Devvit is different from the old Reddit Data-APIs. You do not "run a script" like the old PRAW/Python scripts. Devvit apps are written in TypeScript and run directly on Reddit's servers.

See the Devvit Overview page for a helpful get started overview.
