Building Production-Grade Apps with Base44

From idea to launch

Base44 lets you go from a rough concept to a deployed app faster than ever. In this guide we'll cover the core building blocks.

Start with your data model

Entities are JSON schemas that define the shape of your data. Keep them focused and add fields only as you need them.

• Define clear, required fields
• Use enums for fixed sets of values
• Add row-level security early

Wire up the UI

Pages and components are plain React. Use small, focused components and compose them into pages.

Keep things simple and elegant — spaghetti code is your enemy.

Ship it

Once your flows work, publish and iterate. The fastest feedback loop wins.
