Questions

What happens when I click Create My App?

You download an editable source package with setup files and AI-agent instructions. Your copy is separate from the Foundation Base demo.

Does the Foundation Base demo update when I customize my copy?

No. The demo is the original shared version. Install your own deployed App Link when you want your customized app on a device.

Can I use Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or another agent?

Yes. Foundations are designed to be opened by an AI coding agent after you download and unzip the source package.

Built for safe starting points

Every foundation is treated as code, not content. Contributions are reviewed before publication, and foundations are checked for hidden network behavior, unsafe scripts, secrets, and unclear setup paths.
