## Creating a Spice App

For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://docs.spice.ai/llms.txt). This page is also available as [Markdown](https://docs.spice.ai/docs/getting-started/get-started/portal-login-1.md).

Once [signed in with GitHub](https://docs.spice.ai/docs/getting-started/get-started/portal-login), you will be redirected to the **new application page.** Set a name, add a model provider, and optionally select one of ready to use datasets.

1. Enter a name for the application.

2. Select region.

3. Click **Create application**.

It will take up to 30 seconds to create and provision a dedicated Spice.ai instance for the application.

4. Once the application instance is deployed and ready, you will be redirected to the [Playground](https://docs.spice.ai/docs/portal/playground).

5. Executing the `show tables` SQL query will show the default datasets available for the app.

🎉 **Congrats, you've created your first** [**Spice app**](https://docs.spice.ai/docs/portal/apps) **!**

Continue to [Step. 3 to add a dataset and query it](https://docs.spice.ai/docs/getting-started/get-started/step-2-add-dataset-and-query-data).
