Creating an app in VS Code

  1. When you have successfully logged in and you have the environment set, it's time to develop your first app. To start, call the + icon in the header of My apps section or call the New app command directly from the command palette.

2. At first, you will be asked to fill in a label. That's how the app will be displayed to users.

3. Next, the app id will be generated for you. It will be used in URL paths and so on. However, it should be clear to which app it leads.

It has to match (^[a-z][0-9a-z-]+[0-9a-z]$) regular expression.

4. Then you'll be asked to enter a color theme of your app. That is the color the app's modules will be seen as in scenarios.

5. The next prompt will ask for app language. That is the language of the interface of the app. Most of the apps in Make are currently in English.

6. The last prompt is for countries where the app will be available. If you don't pick any country, the app will be considered global and it will be accessible all around the world.

And that is it. After you confirm the last dialog, your brand new app will appear in the My apps view and you can start coding.
