Getting started

Create a project

Create the project that holds the workspace plan.

Creating a project is a three-step wizard: choose what kind of app you are building, name it, then optionally describe it and list its features. Every project starts from a scaffold you reshape on the canvas — the wizard's job is to collect just enough context for the workspace and its AI tools to start from something real. If you have not planned an application before, how to plan a web app before coding walks the thinking this workspace is built around.

Choose a target

There are five targets, and the choice shapes what gets generated rather than just labelling the project:

Pick the one you mean up front. The target decides which component catalogue the Structure tab offers — shadcn/ui on Web, Desktop, and Extension; Ink components on Terminal; React Native parts on Mobile — and which files the export writes, so switching later means revisiting work that assumed the old one.

Name, describe, list features

The name step just wants something clear and memorable; you can rename the project at any time from the projects list or the workspace menubar.

The details step is optional — Skip & create works — but it is worth doing properly:

  • Description — what the app helps people do. This seeds the Domain tab's product context, which is the grounding passed to every AI feature that suggests entities, endpoints, roles, and a starting access policy. A vague description produces vague suggestions.
  • Features — one per line. These land directly in the Domain tab's feature list, ready to be prioritised, traced through the plan in Traceability, and carried into the project report.

Both can be filled in or rewritten later from inside the workspace; the wizard just saves you the round trip.

Plans and limits

Free accounts can own three projects; every paid plan is unlimited. AI features are not restricted by plan — they draw on a monthly credit allowance that every account gets and that grows with the plan, topped up by referral rewards on any plan.

Inviting collaborators is capped per plan — one member per project on Free, three on Starter, unlimited on Plus — covered in sharing and access. The pricing page has the current numbers side by side.

After the wizard

Creating the project opens it straight into the workspace, on the tab layout described in the workspace overview. A good first stop is the Domain tab, where the description and features you just entered are waiting to be built on.
