Build guides

What it takes to build your kind of app.

Pick the category closest to your idea for specific advice, or start your project and we’ll figure out the details together.

Booking & appointments

A booking app lets people pick a time slot and get reminded, while you manage a calendar behind the scenes.

Online store

An online store shows products, takes payment, and tracks orders, whether you sell five items or five thousand.

Marketplace

A marketplace connects two sides, buyers and sellers, and needs trust and clear payments to work well.

Social & community

A social app is about people posting, following, and reacting to each other, so moderation matters from day one.

Chat & messaging

A messaging app needs to feel instant, which means real-time delivery, not just refreshing a page.

Health & fitness

Health and fitness apps track activity or progress over time, and often connect to a phone's own health data.

Learning & courses

A learning app delivers lessons in order and tracks how far someone has gotten.

Food & restaurants

Food apps are about ordering quickly and knowing when the food will actually arrive.

Travel & local

Travel and local apps help people discover places and plan around a location, often with a map at the center.

Finance & money

Finance apps handle sensitive numbers, so accuracy, security, and clear records matter more than flashy design.

Productivity & tools

Productivity apps help people get something done faster, so speed and a clean interface matter most.

Business dashboard

A business dashboard turns your existing data into clear numbers and charts your team can act on.

Events & tickets

Event apps sell tickets and check people in, so the flow from purchase to entry needs to be smooth.

Real estate & property

Real estate apps are about browsing listings with photos, maps, and filters that actually match how people search.

Games & entertainment

Games and entertainment apps are judged on how fun and responsive they feel, more than any other category.

AI-powered app

AI-powered apps use a model to generate or analyze content, with cost and response time as real design factors.

Media & content

Media and content apps deliver articles, video, or audio smoothly, with playback and organization as the core work.

Something else

Not seeing your idea above? Most apps are still a mix of a few familiar building blocks, accounts, payments, chat, or content.
