## Step 2: Get Started

When you first launch Paperline, you'll see the Onboarding screen:

1. Click **Get Started** to begin setup

## Step 3: Prepare Your Mac

Paperline Doctor automatically checks your development environment:

1. **Xcode** — Apple's development environment
2. **Xcode Command Line Tools** — Compilers and build utilities
3. **iPhone Simulator & iOS Version** — iOS SDK and iPhone simulators

Click **Check Tools** to verify your setup. If anything is missing, click **Install Tools** and Paperline will handle the installation automatically.

## Step 4: Sign In

After your environment is ready:

1. Click **Sign In**
2. Sign in with Google, GitHub, or email
3. You'll be redirected back to Paperline automatically
4. Click **Start Building** to complete setup

## Step 5: Create Your First App

On the Welcome screen, click **Create new project** and describe your app idea:

```
Create a habit tracking app with daily reminders
```

Paperline will:

* Create a new Xcode project
* Generate Swift and SwiftUI code
* Open the iOS Simulator to preview your app

## Step 6: Iterate and Refine

Continue the conversation to refine your app:

* "Add a settings screen with dark mode toggle"
* "Make the buttons rounded with a shadow"
* "Add swipe-to-delete for habits"

Each change is applied in real-time. Use **Checkpoints** to go back anytime.
