Manage applications with CRUD operations. Applications define voice and messaging
URL endpoints for handling incoming calls and messages.

Access via `client.compat.applications` on a [`RestClient`][restclient] instance.

```python {9}
from signalwire.rest import RestClient

client = RestClient(
    project="your-project-id",
    token="your-api-token",
    host="your-space.signalwire.com",
)

apps = client.compat.applications.list()
```
