# Welcome to Mythex

> Mythex is an AI app builder. Describe an app in plain language and get a working project with live preview, terminal, and one-click publish.

# Welcome to Mythex

Mythex is a full-stack **AI app builder** in the browser. You describe what you want in plain language; Mythex builds and runs it in an isolated cloud sandbox, shows a live preview, and can publish a public URL when you are ready.

You get editable code, a real terminal, an optional Postgres database, and ownership of the projects you create — not just a chat transcript of snippets.

## The core loop

1. **Describe** the app or website you want.
2. **Mythex builds** it in a cloud sandbox (files, packages, processes).
3. **Preview** the running app in the browser.
4. **Chat to iterate** — change copy, layout, data, or behavior.
5. **Publish** to a public link when you are ready.

## What makes Mythex different from ChatGPT

| ChatGPT                         | Mythex                                                    |
| ------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| Suggests code in a conversation | Writes and runs code in a real workspace                  |
| You copy/paste elsewhere        | Live preview, terminal, and editor in one place           |
| No hosting built in             | One-click publish to a public URL                         |
| No project ownership model      | You own the project files and can export / sync to GitHub |

## Who Mythex is for

* **Founders** validating MVPs and demos
* **Small businesses** that need a site or simple tool
* **Freelancers & agencies** shipping prototypes faster
* **Students & makers** learning by building
* **Developers** who want a sandbox, preview, and publish path without local setup

You do **not** need deep coding skills to start. If you do know code, Preview | Code gives you the full editor and terminal.

## What you own

You own the applications and content you create. Mythex hosts and runs them so you can build and publish; the output is yours to keep building on or export.
