Your Dashboard

Your dashboard is the home base for everything in Buildify. From here you can create new projects, find existing ones, and organize your work.

Layout overview

The dashboard has two main areas:

  • Left sidebar — Navigation, your project folders, and quick actions
  • Main area — Project creation, your project folders, and your workspace projects

On smaller screens, the sidebar collapses into a drawer.

Creating a new project

The large input area in the center of the dashboard is where you start a new project.

  1. Click on the input field and type a description of what you want to build
  2. Select a project type using the buttons below the input (Web App, Slides, Images, Docs, AI Chat)
  3. Optionally select a template category that appears after choosing a type
  4. Click the submit arrow (or press Enter) to create your project

You can also attach a file — such as an image or document — to give the AI additional context when generating your project.

Your project folders

Project folders help you organize your projects. Think of them like folders on your desktop. In the sidebar they appear under the PROJECTS section.

  • Creating a project folder — Click the + New Project button in the sidebar
  • Adding projects to a folder — Projects can be assigned to a folder when created, or moved later from project settings
  • Navigating folders — Click any folder in the sidebar to see its projects

Individual projects that aren't inside a folder appear under the WORKSPACE section in the sidebar.

Finding your projects

Your projects appear in two places on the dashboard:

  • My Projects — A grid of your project folders and the projects inside them
  • Workspace — Projects not assigned to a folder, also shown in the WORKSPACE section of the sidebar

Click any project card to open it and continue working.

  • + New Item — Create a new project (same as starting from the main input area)
  • + New Project — Create a new project folder
  • Assets — A visual gallery of all your projects and their generated assets across your entire account. Click any card to open that project directly.
  • Search — Search across all your projects by name
