This walk-through takes about twenty minutes.

## Before you begin

Geenius MVP is in early access. Sign in with Geenius OS if you have a paid plan, or [request access](/request-access/) and choose a plan once the team approves it. See [plans and limits](/docs/plans-and-limits/).

## 1. Create a site

Choose **New site**, pick a [type](/docs/site-types/) and give it a name and its languages. Geenius MVP answers with the site's address and ten designs far apart.

## 2. Write the brief

Write what the site is for and the facts it is built on: who you are, what you offer, where, opening hours, contact details. See [brief and content](/docs/brief-and-content/).

## 3. Pick a design

Each of the ten designs has a preview. Choose one. If you like one axis (a palette, a menu), lock it and draw again. See [ten designs far apart](/docs/designs-far-apart/).

## 4. Change a part

Swap the hero, a menu, the palette, the type pair or a section in the [part editor](/docs/part-editor/).

## 5. Preview and publish

Open the full-page preview, check every page on desktop and phone, then [publish](/docs/publishing/). Every publish is kept, so you can roll back.
