GETTING STARTED

Build your first website with Kigo Code

Start with a working browser project. Make one change, test it and keep your source files.

YOUR FIRST BUSINESS PROJECT

From example to your own version

Try a service website, booking-request form or dashboard on the homepage. Choose Make this mine, sign in, then confirm Create project.
Try the starter in Preview. Service estimates use example prices; booking requests are saved drafts, and the dashboard begins with example jobs.
Open Account → Remember my business to save your brand. Enable the profile when you want it included with AI requests.
Describe one useful change in the Assistant. Review the credit limit before sending. Your request stages stay at the top of the workspace.
Review and apply the proposed files, then try the main action again. Use Launch Check to record browser evidence on your connected computer.
Download a project backup, connect any real services and publish through your hosting setup. Verify the public address before sharing it with customers.

YOUR FIRST BROWSER PROJECT

From a playable starter to your own version

Pair Play is a built-in starter, not a live AI-generated result. It gives you something working to explore before you spend credits on a change.

Try the sample
Play here first. Reveal two cards, find matching pairs and use New game to restart. This demo needs no account.
Create your own copy
Sign in, choose New project, select Browser game and choose Create project. Kigo opens its Preview. Creating this starter uses no AI credits.
Open workspace
Explore the files
index.html contains the page, styles.css sets the appearance and game.js handles card matching and scores. README explains how to test it.
Ask AI for one change
Choose Build and send the example prompt below. Sending it uses AI credits. Review the reply and proposed files before applying them; your result can vary.
Change the game title to “My Matching Game” and make the matched cards blue. Keep the matching rules, move counter, keyboard controls and New game button working. Use the existing HTML, CSS and JavaScript files with no external libraries.
Check the result
Apply the proposed files and open Preview. Check the new title and colors, match a pair, try a mismatch and restart. Use Tab and Enter to check keyboard controls. If something fails, follow the repair steps below.
Keep your work
Export your source files. A working preview lets you test your project; publishing it as a separate website is another step.

The starter, running here

Match eight pairs of cards. Try the buttons, score counter and restart.

Built-in starter · HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Demo progress resets when you leave this page.

Fix a website error with AI

Describe what you did, what you expected and what happened instead. In Debug mode, include the exact error message and relevant file. Keep passwords and keys out of the request.

After my last change, the New game button does not reset the move counter. Please inspect game.js, explain the cause and propose the smallest repair. Preserve the matching rules and keyboard controls.

Use this prompt only if you observe that problem. Review the proposed repair, apply it and repeat the action that failed. Also test the nearby features. If the change makes things worse, restore the earlier files from History.

Use Kigo on your device

The web workspace is designed for current Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on Windows, macOS, Linux, ChromeOS, iPhone, iPad and Android. Open it in a full browser with JavaScript and cookies enabled. No desktop installation is required.

You can create projects, chat, edit files and export source from the web workspace. Native builds run on your connected Mac; opening Kigo on a Windows PC or phone does not install Xcode there. Older browsers, TV browsers and embedded app viewers may not support every feature.

1. Create a project

Open your workspace and choose New project. Pick Web, iPhone, or Android. Describe the first thing your app should do, then send your request in Build mode.

Start small: “Build a task list where I can add, complete, and delete tasks.” Each project keeps its own files and conversation.

Open my workspace

2. Try the result

Web

Apply the proposed files and open Preview. Supported HTML, CSS, and JavaScript run in your browser. No build computer is needed for this preview.

iPhone or Android

Open Build and connect your Mac using the setup kit. Save your files, then choose Build & run on my Mac. The simulator or emulator opens on that Mac.

When Kigo finishes, choose Apply & build. To do this automatically on your next request, enable “Auto-apply & build after reply.” Kigo saves the old version in History before applying changes.

Without a Mac, you can still generate and download native source files. Hosted native builds are not available yet.

3. Fix errors and test on your phone

If compilation fails, choose Fix & rebuild. Kigo reads the compiler error and makes one repair attempt through its AI service. This uses your AI credits. You can restore earlier files from History.

For iPhone installation, connect and unlock your phone, configure your Apple signing team in Xcode, and select your phone using the setup guide. Then choose Install on my iPhone. The page tells you whether the app was actually installed.

An iPhone Simulator app cannot be installed on a phone. A downloaded IPA cannot install directly from Safari. App Store and TestFlight distribution require separate Apple setup. Android downloads contain a debug APK.

Improve an existing website

In a web project, open Research & Test → Websites. Paste a public website link, describe what you want to improve, and choose Review website. After you approve the request, Kigo uses AI credits to read available page text and save a review with source links.

Choose your workflow: Squarespace, Cloudflare, another existing website, or inspiration. After reviewing, use Draft page copy, Prepare SEO changes, Prepare Squarespace code or Edit supplied source, and Plan publishing. These prepare requests for your review before sending. Kigo has no external website publishing connection in this workflow; saving code here does not update the live site. Cloudflare DNS ownership does not provide access to Squarespace content.

For inspiration mode, choose Use this reference to prepare an editable build request. Add screenshots in Assistant if you want Kigo to consider the visual design. A text review does not inspect the rendered layout or test the site’s buttons and forms. Kigo uses the findings as inspiration for your own design.

Use Kigo Launch Check before sharing

Open Launch Check in your project. It lists recorded results for the current saved source, with Passed, Failed and Not tested labels. Save edits first. Use feature tests for your main customer journey; page checks alone do not establish that buttons, forms or payments work.

Browser checks run in an isolated cloud browser and block outside traffic. Your computer can be off. Verify live service connections separately. Open History to inspect saved versions and restore when needed; export a backup before important changes.

Publish your website

Export the project and use its source with your hosting setup. Kigo's workspace preview does not publish a customer website. Connect the required backend and external services, publish through your host, then verify the real public address on a phone and computer. A preview-only booking draft must not be presented as a confirmed appointment.

Remember your business

Open Account → Remember my business. Save your name, services, audience, tone, brand color and public HTTPS logo link, then enable their use. These preferences are private to your account and are included with AI requests unless you disable saved instructions. Project instructions and your latest request take priority. Saving new preferences does not rewrite existing files.

Understand the result

Build passed: The compiler produced an app. Its features still need testing.
Opened on Mac: The simulator or emulator confirmed the app opened. Try its screens and actions there.
Installed on iPhone: The selected iPhone confirmed installation. Open the app on that phone to test it.

A TV remote also needs real Wi-Fi discovery, pairing, and working commands for each supported TV protocol. A successful build does not verify TV compatibility.

Your account, projects, and usage

Your projects, history, AI usage, and build downloads belong to your Kigo account. Use the same sign-in method each time. Apple and Google accounts do not automatically gain access to the owner’s projects.

AI requests use Kigo credits and have daily limits. A failed repair can still use AI credits. Open Plans & usage to see your balance, current payment availability, and subscription renewal details before purchasing.

Native builds allow one active job and 20 builds per account per rolling 24 hours. Downloads stay available for 7 days. Export your project to keep your own copy.

Your source and prompts are sent to the selected AI provider to answer requests. Native source is also sent to your connected Mac; compiler logs and build archives return to Kigo. Keep passwords and private credentials out of your prompts and source files.

Find your existing projects

Choose My projects on the homepage to continue. Saved files and conversations belong to your account. Unsent message drafts are kept in the same browser tab when storage is available; they are not sent automatically or synced to other devices. Save file edits before leaving, and download backups for important work.

Use the same account and sign-in method you used to create them. Apple, Google and ChatGPT can open separate workspaces, even when their email addresses match.

If you created your projects with ChatGPT, sign in with that original account to open owner controls. To connect Apple or Google, create a linking code on that sign-in, then review and approve it from your original owner account.

Open owner sign-in help

If sign-in gets stuck

Use the sign-in page in Safari or Chrome and finish sign-in in that same browser. Choose your usual Apple or Google account. If access is awaiting approval, the account page explains the next step. Avoid repeatedly signing in with different providers to reach the same project.

Save Kigo Code for next time

Open the public website address below in your browser. On a computer, bookmark it with Ctrl+D on Windows or Command+D on Mac. On iPhone or iPad, open it in Safari, use the Share menu and choose Add to Home Screen. On Android, look in your browser menu for Add to Home screen. Menu wording can vary by browser.

This gives you a shortcut back to the website. You still need an internet connection and your usual sign-in method.
