# Welcome (/get-started/welcome)

Paddlewheel turns a description of an app into a working one. You say what you want, AI agents build it, and you get an app that runs, goes live on the web and belongs to you.

You don't need to know how to code. You need an idea and a few sentences to describe it.

## What you can do [#what-you-can-do]

- [Builder](/get-started/quickstart): Describe an app. Agents build it, check it and ship it.

When your app is ready, [publish it](/get-started/quickstart#publish-it). Every project gets a free web address, and paid plans can add their own domain.

Paddlewheel has more products, such as Paddie, Design, Pages and Track. Their guides appear here as they open to everyone.
