Editing your app · silicondevkit.com docs

Every project keeps its chat and its source code. To change the app, send another message in the same project.

How follow-ups work

A follow-up edits the existing code instead of starting over, so things you did not mention stay as they were. Each follow-up creates a new build, and the download button updates when it is ready.

Good follow-ups are small and specific:

"Make the number turn red when it is negative."
"Add a Reset button that sets the count to 0."
"Use a larger font for the total."

While a build is running

You cannot send another message until the current build finishes. The message box is disabled and shows "Build in progress…".

If a build fails

The chat shows the compiler error. Send a message such as "fix the build error" or describe the change you actually want. The AI sees the previous conversation and the code.

Starting fresh

To start a different app, create a new project. Projects are listed on the home page and in the desktop app's sidebar.
