What is SteerCode?
What is SteerCode?
SteerCode is an AI-powered platform that lets you create websites and native mobile apps in plain language. You describe what you want; SteerCode generates, runs, and helps you iterate until it fits your needs.
What can I build with SteerCode?
What can I build with SteerCode?
From landing pages to full-stack tools and production-ready mobile apps—if you
can describe it, you can likely build it. Start small and add features
incrementally for best results.
Do I need coding experience?
Do I need coding experience?
No. SteerCode works for all skill levels. Developers can still dive into code,
connect integrations, and export/download codebases.
How do I create a project?
How do I create a project?
On the dashboard, click New project and describe what you want to build.
SteerCode generates a starting point you can refine via chat. See
Build Your First App.
Can I start from templates or remix?
Can I start from templates or remix?
Yes. You can start from AI instructions, evolve an existing project, or adapt
patterns you like. (Public projects and showcases help you learn fast.)
How do I build efficiently with SteerCode?
How do I build efficiently with SteerCode?
- Be clear and specific about features and target users - Focus on one feature at a time - Build incrementally and test often - Use design cues or style references if UI matters See Planning best practices.
How should I write prompts for best results?
How should I write prompts for best results?
- Specify pages/screens, data fields, and user flows - Name any APIs or integrations you expect - Provide sample data or formats - Mention device features (camera, location, etc.) if needed
What should I do when I hit an error?
What should I do when I hit an error?
- Ask SteerCode to investigate — describe what you see (error text, steps to reproduce). 2) Iterate the fix — if the first attempt doesn’t resolve it, provide logs or constraints (e.g., “must keep Supabase schema unchanged”).
- Rollback the change — if the issue persists, ask SteerCode to revert
the last set of changes or regenerate the feature in smaller steps.
Fix attempts and investigations use credits.
What is refactoring and why is it useful?
What is refactoring and why is it useful?
Refactoring improves structure and maintainability without changing behavior.
It can: - Remove duplication and dead code - Improve performance and
reliability - Make future changes safer and faster
Can I connect a backend and store data?
Can I connect a backend and store data?
Yes. We recommend Supabase for auth and database. See
Integrations.
Can I add login to my website or app?
Can I add login to my website or app?
Yes. Ask SteerCode to add authentication (e.g., email/password, social
sign-in) using Supabase. Follow the generated steps or the
Integrations guide.
Can I add third-party APIs (OpenAI, Stripe, etc.)?
Can I add third-party APIs (OpenAI, Stripe, etc.)?
Yes. Mention the APIs in your prompt. SteerCode will scaffold calls and the
structure you need. See Integrations.
Where should I store API keys and secrets?
Where should I store API keys and secrets?
Never hardcode secrets. Use environment variables and secret managers. If you
use Supabase, store keys in Supabase secrets and call them from Edge
Functions. See Secrets.
How do I add payments?
How do I add payments?
Ask SteerCode to set up Stripe and the relevant flows (checkout,
webhooks). Follow the prompts and secure your keys. See

How can I improve SEO for my site?
How can I improve SEO for my site?
Use semantic HTML, meaningful titles/descriptions, fast load times, and clear
content hierarchy. Generate Open Graph images, sitemaps, and robots.txt as
needed. Publish on a custom domain for credibility. See
Custom domains and
Publish.
How long does a project take?
How long does a project take?
It depends on complexity. You move fastest by breaking work into small tasks, testing after each change, and iterating based on feedback.
