# To create an app, you create an [[app projects|app project]]. You can create an unlimited number of projects. By associating the project with a user role (profile), the correct app will be available for your users.
# The next step is to create the data model. Woodford connects to the cloud-service and imports the metadata. Simply by selecting which entities and fields you want to have available in the app the data model is created.
# To design the UI components like views, forms, and home-menu, simply use the provided designers.
# Finally, publish the app. A published project is a data package that the app downloads and reads to configure itself.
Your users can now download one of [[Resco mobile apps]], enter your cloud-service login and enjoy the app you have just created.
