Most things in Create can be found through the top left logo menu in the builder or by pressing / in the chat. Odds are it’s there.
Press / in the chat > choose our ChatGPT, Gemini, or Anthropic 3.5 Sonnet integration. Describe how you want to use it, and send the message.
It really depends on your use case. Claude 3.5 Sonnet might be the best all around, but ChatGPT and others can be faster or higher quality in different use cases.

In general, we think you should start with the UI for your app (Pages, Components) and then move on to Functions, Databases, User Accounts as you need them:
-
Pages are the screens of your app
-
Components are reusable UI elements so you don’t have to keep re-making them
-
Functions help you break up logic separate from the UI or talk to external APIs
-
Databases let you store data so your app saves what users do in it
-
User Accounts gives you the ability for users to sign up, sign in and have the app protect content or customize experiences based on user data
You can use one of our Templates that already has payments enabled. We have a beta for built in payments. Reach out if you’d like early access.
In some cases, we can recover it for you. Please post in Discord or email us at hello@create.xyz. Include your Create email and something that can help us identify the thing you deleted so we can bring it back.
