Create an application

Baserow makes it easy to build applications that fit your needs. If you need to handle a project, keep track of items, or sort customer info, Baserow has a simple platform for you to store, sort, and manage your data.

We’ll show you how to make a Baserow application step by step in this guide.

Overview

Once you log in to your Baserow account, you’ll land on your dashboard. This is where you manage all your applications and databases in workspaces. Workspaces provide a structured way to organize your work, and you can invite collaborators to join you.

In these workspaces, you can invite others to collaborate with you. To create an application, simply choose an existing workspace or create a new workspace.

Create a blank application

To create a new application, navigate to the workspace where you want to create the application.

  1. On your dashboard, click the Create new button.

  2. After clicking the Create new button, a popup will appear, where you can either select the Database, Application, or From template option. Select the Application option.

  3. In the pop-up that opens next, give the application a descriptive name. You can subsequently change the application name as needed.

    The application name is for your reference and will not appear anywhere after publishing the application.

    Assign a name for your new application

  4. Click Add application to finalize the setup. Then, you’ll be immediately taken to your new Baserow application and can start working on it.

You can see default pages and elements when you navigate to your newly created application.

Duplicate an application

To duplicate an existing application, hover over the application and click the three dots ⋮ icon next to it. Then, choose the Duplicate option from the dropdown menu.

You can monitor the progress of the duplication in the left sidebar.

Add an application from template

The easiest way to get started if you are new to Baserow Application Builder is to copy a template. To start with a template, you need to choose a workspace into which the template will be installed.

You can add a template in two ways:

  1. From the template page, or
  2. From your dashboard.
