# Development Workflow

To run the application with Gradle continuous build, enter:

```
./gradlew -t run                                    (on Linux)
gradlew.bat -t run                                  (on Windows)
```

After Gradle finishes downloading dependencies and building the application, open <http://localhost:3000/> in your favorite browser.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you are working with a fullstack project, the tasks names are different. Please check [this chapter](/kvision-guide/5.-fullstack-development-guide.md) for details.
{% endhint %}

You can import the project in **IntelliJ IDEA** and open `src/jsMain/kotlin/com/example/App.kt` file. You can of course use your favorite text editor.

Add some code inside the `start` function:

{% code title="App.kt" %}

```kotlin
override fun start() {
    // ...
    root("kvapp") {
        span("Hello world!")
    }
 }
```

{% endcode %}

You should see your changes immediately in the browser.

{% hint style="info" %}
It's recommended to use Gradle from a command line (in a terminal window).
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://kvision.gitbook.io/kvision-guide/1.-getting-started-1/development-workflow.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
