Quick start
Your first project in five minutes: draw, add physics or 3D, run it and share a link.
1. Open the editor and create a project
Press “Open the editor”. Sign in or register, then create an empty project or take a ready-made experiment or template from the gallery: “Open in the editor” opens your own copy to change freely.
Projects save automatically. Several people can edit one project at the same time, and you can share a view-only link.
2. Draw and arrange
Pick a tool on the left toolbar or with a key and draw on the canvas. Everything you draw can be selected, moved, rotated, grouped and tuned in the Properties panel on the right.
- Frame (F)
- the area a screen or sheet is built in.
- Rectangle (R), ellipse (O), line (L), pen (P)
- basic shapes and paths.
- Text (T)
- labels and headings.
- Hand (H) or Space
- pan the canvas; mouse wheel zooms.
3. Add physics
Select a shape and open the Physics tab in Properties: a body can be dynamic (falls and collides), static (stays put) or a sensor. Set mass, friction and bounciness, add joints (J) and instruments.
Press Run to watch everything move and Stop to return to the starting positions. Your initial values are never lost.
4. Try 3D
Key 3 adds a 3D scene. Inside you get cubes, spheres, cylinders, revolved and extruded shapes, people for scale and AI models. See the 3D editor page for details.
5. Share the result
Export a frame to PNG, JPG, WebP or SVG, record a GIF animation, save the project to a .fra file or embed an experiment on your site with the built-in player. A project can be published through the Share button: it becomes visible to everyone by link and may appear in Community.
