# Quickstart

> Create and run your first workflow in 10 minutes

Get started with Jinba Flow by building a simple workflow that searches the web and summarizes results using AI.

## What You'll Build

A workflow that:

1. Searches Google for a topic you specify
2. Summarizes the results using AI
3. Returns a concise summary

## Prerequisites

* A Jinba Flow account ([Sign up here](https://flow.jinba.io/))
* No coding experience required

## Steps

<Steps>
  <Step title="Sign in to Jinba Flow">
    Go to [flow.jinba.io](https://flow.jinba.io/) and sign in to your account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Describe your workflow">
    In the chat panel, type a natural language description of what you want to accomplish:

    ```
    Search Google for "AI productivity tools" and summarize the top results
    ```

    Click "Create Flow" (or press Enter) to let the AI generate your workflow.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Flow Generation">
    The flow is created in the left chat panel, and a manifest defining the step structure is automatically generated in the right YAML coding panel.

  <Step title="Accept the Flow">
    Review the AI-generated flow and click **"Accept Changes"** to confirm the generated workflow.
