Create Your First App
Build and preview an application on Panoply
Using the App Builder
Panoply's app builder lets you create applications by describing what you want in plain language.
- Click Create from your dashboard
- Describe your app — what it does, who it's for, how it should look
- Watch as the AI generates your app in real-time
- Preview the live result in the built-in sandbox
- Make adjustments by describing changes in natural language
- When you're happy, click Save Draft
Tips for Great Apps
- Be specific. "A calorie tracking app with a daily log and weekly chart" beats "a health app."
- Iterate. Your first generation is a starting point. Refine with follow-up prompts.
- Test it. Use the preview to check every interaction before publishing.
- Think about your audience. What problem does this solve? Who would pay for it?
