Want to get up and running in under 10 minutes? This quick start guide covers the essentials to start building with Turtleship right away.

💡Prerequisites

You'll need a Turtleship account. If you don't have one yet, sign up at turtleship.ai.

5-Minute Setup

Create a Project

Go to Projects → New Project. Enter a name, select "Managed Repository", and click Create.

Create Your First Ticket

In your new project, click "New Ticket" and describe what you want to build:

Create a landing page with:
- Hero section with title and CTA button
- Features grid with 3 items
- Footer with links

Use modern styling with gradients and shadows.

Wait for AI Review

AI will analyze your request and create an implementation plan. This usually takes 1-2 minutes. You'll see the plan appear in the ticket.

Start Development

Click "Start Development" to let AI build the feature. Progress updates appear in real-time.

Preview & Deploy

Once complete, click "Preview" to see your changes in a live preview environment. Happy with the result? Click "Deploy" to ship to production.

Tips for Better Results

Be Specific

The more detail you provide, the better the results:

❌ "Add a form"

✅ "Add a contact form with:
- Name field (required)
- Email field (required, validated)
- Message textarea
- Submit button
- Success/error toast notifications
- Form validation before submit"

Add Screenshots

Upload screenshots or mockups to show exactly what you want. AI can analyze images and implement them accurately.

Reference Existing Code

Mention existing components or patterns in your codebase: "Use the same card style as the pricing page".

✨Iterate Quickly

Don't try to build everything in one ticket. Break large features into smaller pieces and iterate. It's faster and produces better results.

Common Commands

Ctrl/Cmd + K — Open command palette
N — New ticket (when on project page)
P — Open preview (when viewing ticket)
D — Deploy (when preview is ready)
