Mostly API.

There are a tonne of resources officially a quick Google search will bring them up. The software is open source with documentation.

Is there a way to use the API without an internet connection? I would not like to rely on internet connectivity ...

It’s lower level, nitty gritty, but there is modbus tcp available through the gx devices. You’ll probably have to write glue code to make it work though.
