App Builder

After this chapter you can describe an app in chat, generate real React and Next.js source, iterate it across versions, and know what shipping it live does and does not do today.

App Builder turns a description into a working web app. You write what you want in chat, and it hands back a real React and Next.js project you can preview, read, change, version, and ship. It lives inside your project, so every build is saved and tracked right next to your images, videos, and documents.

This chapter follows the real workflow from start to finish. You will see what the builder produces, how to shape an app by talking to it, how to preview the result and read the code it wrote, how to iterate across versions without losing your place, and how landing pages here differ from the one-shot generator elsewhere in Pinnora.

One honest note up front. App Builder is a newer surface, and we will tell you where the edges are. Generating, previewing, and iterating are in everyday use. Shipping an app to a live URL is fully built but has not been proven in production yet, so the last lesson draws that line clearly.
