The Apillon platform was designed to streamline the way developers build Web3 projects. As a turn-key solution for Web3 development, it empowers users to implement the power of blockchain technology in functional products to serve their clients and audiences.

In this sneak peek, you will discover how to register to the Apillon platform, get your foot in the Web3 door, and start charting your first project.

☝️ *Disclaimer: The present sneak peek serves as a preliminary insight into the Apillon platform, which, at the time of writing, is still in the making and subject to change and updates before the official launch. It also does not intend to serve as a how-to guide; in-depth tutorials navigating platform functionalities will be published once the Apillon platform goes live.*

## Register to Apillon

Apillon is redefining the way developers think of Web3. Registration included.

Contrary to complex practices of signing up to Web3-based products, which include generation of seed phrases and employment of decentralized authentication tools, Apillon makes Web3 more approachable.

You will be able to register to the Apillon platform using simply your email address and a password. This is quite a revolutionary way of approaching Web3 technologies, as it bypasses the complexity of setting up a wallet and navigating self-custodial means of authentication.


> **👉 Good to know**
> As the platform evolves, the later versions will also support Web3-based registration via a digital identifier and a wallet.

> By delivering both registration options, the Apillon platform will further ease the transition from Web2 to Web3. It would cater to both developers that prefer Web2-based log-in (email and password) as well as Web3 veterans that rather go with decentralized means of authentication.

Upon registration, you will receive an email containing a link. Clicking on it will activate your account and open the door to the Apillon dashboard.


## Start building or try demo project

Once logged in, you'll be able to bring your Web3 project idea to life.

Or, if you're unsure what you want to build yet, you could test the waters first. The fully Web3-compatible website demo will let you try out a few services and main functionalities and walk you through the open-source code.

Let's say you're eager to start creating.

You will be able to start a new Web3 project simply by clicking **[Start building]**.

In the following step, you will be encouraged to give your project a character with a name and description. This will help you locate an individual project among many that you will create throughout your Web3 journey with Apillon.

> **👉 Good to know**
> A *project* is a container of different services powering a Web3 product. Projects are intended for the internal use of the Apillon platform users, and their contents are not shared or inscribed on the blockchain. At a project level, you could add other users to collaborate.

> **👉 Good to know**
> Both the project name and description are for your reference only. You could always change them later in project settings.

Once your Web3 project has a name, you could start building it with Apillon.


Upon clicking **[Start your first project]**, the Apillon magic will start setting up your Web3 development dashboard.

## Plans and pricing

The Apillon Beta platform was designed to be readily available to all users at a freemium plan. All you will need to do is sign up and start using it.


> **👉 Good to know**
> Apillon Beta will be an entirely working product designed to provide users with all the core features and functionalities of the Web3 development platform. While upgraded versions of the platform will deliver more functionalities in the following phases, Apillon Beta will provide everything you need to create a functional and sustainable Web3 product with the initially supported services.


The freemium plan of the Apillon Beta will come with some limitations, though. These include the number of users that could collaborate on a project, the amount of data managed through an account, etc.

As the platform progresses to improved versions, you'll be able to upgrade to other packages and employ more features and functionalities to create more nuanced and multifunctional Web3 products.


## What do you need to build Web3 products with Apillon?

Nothing special, really. Your standard web development knowledge and fluency in the most common programming languages (say, Javascript/Typescript, Python, etc.) will do the job.

The hard work of establishing a connection to Web3 service providers and their technologies on a single dashboard will be done by the Apillon team.

Bring your Web3 project idea to life and build advanced Web3 applications faster and easier.
