Welcome to Thunkable! If you're looking for a short guide on how to get started building your first app with Thunkable, you're in the right place!
Just follow these simple steps, and you'll be on your way to publishing your app in no time:
You can sign up or sign in to Thunkable using your Google account, Apple ID, or email address.
You can find your projects page at x.thunkable.com/projects. This is the first page you see when you sign in.
Designing the visual aspect of your app is accomplished with screens, user interface (UI) components, and navigators. You can combine, style and customize them to give your app personality and style that best suits your brand.
Thunkable blocks are the building blocks of a great experience for your app users. Every component has its own set of blocks to start or trigger an event and set and change properties.
There are two ways to test and preview your Thunkable app: Web Preview in your computer's browser or on your mobile device with the Thunkable Live app. These allow you to preview your app's design and test its functionality in real-time.
We encourage you to check out our Thunkable Education resources to familiarize yourself with the platform and expedite the time it takes you to build your first Thunkable app.
Thunkable Academy is Thunkable's self-paced learning environment. With videos that cover the basics and best practices to start, Thunkable Academy is designed to help you quickly and effectively create your own custom, native mobile applications.
