From an intention to a useful result

A few ways to make it yours.

These examples show how the pieces can come together around a purpose.

From a sketch to a useful flow

Start with

A sketch or design showing the experience you want a person to have.

What you are working toward

An app direction informed by an actual flow, ready to keep improving.

  1. Describe

    Explain the purpose of each screen and the decisions behind it.

  2. Connect

    Add the data, files, and access needed for the flow to work.

  3. Try

    Use realistic input to check the journey before inviting people to rely on it.

From a design reference to a published app

Start with

Exported screens or screenshots from Stitch, Claude Design, or another design tool, with a note on what each screen should let a person do.

What you are working toward

A published app that keeps what the design communicates, with behavior you have reviewed and a plan for its ongoing use.

  1. Shape

    Separate the layout you want to keep from placeholder content. Describe the records, actions, and access behind each screen.

  2. Review

    Before publishing, walk through the main journey as a first-time visitor. Check links, validation, and what happens after a submission.

  3. Plan

    Decide which information should persist and where models or an agent can help. Expand the app once one complete journey works.

Together in your app cloud

The pieces behind the possibility.

Choose the models and services that support the experience you want to create.

Apps your own AI assistant builds can't use AI models yet; for AI, create the app in the Studio.

A little more context

Good questions.

Does a design file define the whole app?

A design communicates the interface. Explain the data, rules, permissions, and behavior behind it too, so the app serves the purpose the screens represent.

How should I evaluate a prototype?

Try a realistic task from beginning to end. Check empty states, mistakes, and returning users as well as the first impression. Use what you learn to choose the next improvement.

Which design tools have their own guides?

Stitch and Claude Design each have three guides: shaping an app from the design, reviewing it before publishing, and planning for ongoing use. With another tool, attach exported screens as a reference and describe the behavior behind them.
