# Creating Apps with App Gallery

When you create a project, App creation menus are shown automatically. You can also create a new app by clicking Create App button:

Once you are inside the app creation dialog, you have two options:

* You can quickly create an LLM app by choosing from our pre-curated library.
* You can create a custom app by using code or Docker images.

### Creating an App with App Gallery

Create apps quickly by selecting from the hand-curated App Gallery. Access it by clicking “Select Template from Gallery” at the top or choosing the App Gallery menu on the left.

Once in the App Gallery, you can choose from many options. Please don’t miss the first one that offers a very large selection of latest and greatest LLM models.

Once you make your selection, you have the option to customize its settings. For most purposes, “Quick Launch” will be the best. However, if you need to configure the Environment Variables for more advanced authentication and other settings, choose “Customize First”.

This will bring you back to App Creation dialog. As the final step, you will need to choose your compute source. Please see [understanding-compute-sources](https://docs.kinesis.network/getting-started/running-llms-with-kinesis-network/understanding-compute-sources "mention")
