This guide is the beginning of the documentation with the built-in Notes for the database. Will help you gain a better understanding of how the template and Bubble works.

Starting with the Template

Once you have bought or added a block to your account, you will see a dropdown in the New Application popup that lets you pick a template as the basis for the new application.

☝

Note: This can only be done when you create a new app.

After you've selected a block you bought, complete the ”Name your app” field and press Create app.

💡

Tip: A template isn't a theme for your app, but a pre-built set of elements and workflows. You can modify the template as you would modify another app.

Wait for Bubble to load the application with all the data.

After the application has loaded, you'll see the Component library on the right side for New Application. You can close it or follow the assistant steps to adjust different settings.

✅

Congrats: You have successfully created a Bubble app based on your template. Now you're ready to go and dive into Bubble no-code development toolset.
