An App represents the app/program/website that Wysimark will be used in. Create a new Wysimark App by clicking the `+ New App` button.

Enter a name for the app that contains only letters, numbers and dashes. The app name will make up part of the URL of your uploaded files.

Once you're finished, you'll see instructions on how to add the app name to the editor. The instructions will look something like this:

```javascript
import { Editor, useEditor } from 'wysimark'

const App = () => {

  // set initial markdown here
  const editor = useEditor("# Heading...")
  
  // get markdown in editor 
  const save = () => {
    const markdown = editor.getMarkdown()
    console.log(markdown)
  }
  
  return <div>
    { /* Note: App name is passed in below */ }
    <Editor editor={editor} app="your-app-name-goes-here" />
    <button onClick={save}>Submit</button>
  </div>
}
```

Notice that the `Editor` component has an attribute named `app`.
