Using Squidex Cloud
You can now start with an empty App (click here to read what an App in Squidex is) or select one of the starter Apps that we provide. Starter Apps come with sample schema(s) and some sample content, they help you to quickly get started using Squidex.
In the following example, we will use the starter sample blog to quickly create an App.
Click Starter Sample Blog (1) to get started.
Enter a unique Name (2) (in Squidex Cloud if an App name is already taken it will ask you to enter a different name) and click Create (3).
Click on the newly create App (4) to access it.
You can now explore the pre-populated schemas and content and make modifications / additions to them. For a better understanding we highly recommend looking at the documentation.
At this point the App is ready to be used with a frontend of your choice. We have a few quick start guides that work with the blog sample which you can explore here:
