Go from an idea to a live link in five steps.

## 1. Describe your project

Open the [Agent](https://dashboard.back4app.com/agents) and write what you want to build. Say who uses it and what they do.

:::BlockQuote
A booking system for my barbershop. Clients pick a service and a time. I see all bookings for the day.
:::

## 2. Answer the Agent's questions

The Agent may ask a few questions before it starts. Answer them, or skip and let it decide.

## 3. Test in the Preview

When the build finishes, try the project in the **Preview** tab. Create an account, add data, click through every screen.

## 4. Ask for changes

Send one change per message: "Add a cancel button to each booking", "Show prices in euros". For small text or color fixes, use [Visual editing](#).

## 5. Publish

Click **Publish**. Review the database changes, confirm, and your project goes live at its own `b4a.run` address.

Publishing requires the Starter plan. See [Plans and credits](#).
