# Create an app (start-here)

Numbered path for the first blank app. The canonical pages are [Create an app](https://docs.notionapps.com/workspace-and-account/create-an-app) and [Start from a template / clone an app](https://docs.notionapps.com/get-started/start-from-a-template).

## Steps

1. Connect Notion if you have not already.
2. On builder home, click **Create app**.
3. Pick the Notion workspace and the first database (or start from a template).
4. Wait until the builder opens with a default list screen.
5. Rename the app in **Settings → General** so you can find it later.

## When to clone instead

If you want Sample Apps, a marketplace template, or a copy of an app you already own, stop here and open [Start from a template / clone an app](https://docs.notionapps.com/get-started/start-from-a-template).
