How Newly builds it
The whole flow, four steps.
These guides describe the architecture — Newly builds it for you.
Describe your app
Tell the agent the app type and the features you want — “Build a live streaming app with chat and tipping”. The AI picks the right architecture.
AI generates the code
Newly outputs a complete React Native + Expo project: UI, navigation, state, API calls, and a Liquid Backend with database, auth, and storage.
Iterate in plain English
Refine by chatting: “Add user profiles”, “Move the cart icon”, “Integrate Stripe”. Changes happen in real-time.
Ship to the stores
One-click deploy to App Store and Google Play via Expo Launch — or export to GitHub and ship it yourself. You own 100% of the code.
Skip the guide. Build with AI.
