Thunkable blocks are visual representations of code, which are far less abstract than traditional code. There is no need to learn, remember, and type complex code statements. Instead, with Thunkable, you have a library of pre-defined blocks to choose from, and how you connect the blocks defines how your app behaves.
To learn more about building your app's functionality with blocks, see these docs:
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.
