This guide walks you through your first factory run: describe a product, let agents build it, preview the result, and publish it live. Most users finish in under 15 minutes — work that would traditionally take weeks and thousands in dev costs.

​
Before you begin

  • A Native.Builder account (sign up at nativelyai.com)
  • A clear idea of what you want to build — even a one-sentence description works

​
Create your first project

1

Sign in and open the dashboard

Go to nativelyai.com and sign in. You’ll land on your project dashboard.
2

Brief the factory

In the prompt box, describe the product you need. Be specific about the purpose, key screens, and must-have features — the clearer the brief, the less rework.Example: “Build a task manager with a sidebar, a list of tasks grouped by status, and the ability to add and complete tasks.”
3

Watch agents build

Specialized agents generate your app and open a live preview. You’ll see changes appear in real time as the Builder works. Browse the file explorer to inspect production code.
4

Iterate until it's right

Keep directing the agents — design tweaks, new pages, bug fixes. Each turn uses credits from your workspace pool. Incremental prompts cost less than big rewrites.
New projects start with the Product Architect — your factory’s planning stage. It scopes the work before credits are spent on code. Switch to the Builder agent when you’re ready to ship.

​
Ways to start a project

You don’t have to start from a blank prompt. Depending on your workflow:
  • Describe from scratch — Type what you want in the prompt box on the dashboard
  • Open an existing project — Click any project card to continue where you left off
  • Use templates — Browse available templates (availability depends on your plan)

​
Edit your project

Once your project is open:
  • Chat — Send messages in the chat panel to request changes
  • Preview — View the running app in the preview panel
  • File explorer — Browse and inspect generated source files
  • Versions — Revert to earlier snapshots if something goes wrong (available on paid plans)

​
Publish your app

When your app is ready to share:
1

Open publish settings

In your project, open Settings → Publish (or use the publish button in the project toolbar).
2

Publish

Click Publish. Natively builds and deploys your app to a live URL like yourproject.nativelyai.app.
3

Publish

Click Publish. Builder builds and deploys your app to a live URL like yourproject.nativelyai.app.
4

Share the URL

Copy the URL and share it with collaborators, stakeholders, or users.
See Publish your app for details on unpublishing, custom domains, and branding.
