# Dashboard

Last updated Aug 24, 2026|Copy as Markdown|[View as Markdown](https://e8aee267.previews.developers.cloudflare.com/workers-ai/get-started/dashboard/index.md)|[Agent setup](https://e8aee267.previews.developers.cloudflare.com/agent-setup/)

Follow this guide to create a Workers AI application using the Cloudflare dashboard.

## Prerequisites

Sign up for a [Cloudflare account ↗](https://dash.cloudflare.com/sign-up/workers-and-pages) if you have not already.

## Setup

To create a Workers AI application:

1. In the Cloudflare dashboard, go to the **Workers & Pages** page.  
[Go to **Workers & Pages** ↗](https://dash.cloudflare.com/?to=/:account/workers-and-pages)
2. Select **Create application**.
3. Under **Select a template**, select **LLM Chat App**.
4. Select **Deploy**.
5. Name your Worker, then select **Create and deploy**.
6. Preview your Worker at its provided [workers.dev](https://e8aee267.previews.developers.cloudflare.com/workers/configuration/routing/workers-dev/) subdomain.

## Development

### Dashboard

Editing in the dashboard is helpful for simpler use cases.

Once you have created your Worker script, you can edit and deploy your Worker using the Cloudflare dashboard:

1. In the Cloudflare dashboard, go to the **Workers & Pages** page.  
[Go to **Workers & Pages** ↗](https://dash.cloudflare.com/?to=/:account/workers-and-pages)
2. Select your application.
3. Select **Edit Code**.

### Wrangler CLI

To develop more advanced applications or [implement tests](https://e8aee267.previews.developers.cloudflare.com/workers/testing/), start working in the Wrangler CLI.

1. Install [npm ↗](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started).
2. Install [Node.js ↗](https://nodejs.org/en/).

Node.js version manager

Use a Node version manager like [Volta ↗](https://volta.sh/) or [nvm ↗](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) to avoid permission issues and change Node.js versions. [Wrangler](https://e8aee267.previews.developers.cloudflare.com/workers/wrangler/install-and-update/), discussed later in this guide, requires a Node version of `16.17.0` or later.

1. Run the following command, replacing the value of `[<DIRECTORY>]` which the location you want to put your Worker Script.

npmyarnpnpm

```
npm create cloudflare@latest -- [<DIRECTORY>] --type=pre-existing
```

```
yarn create cloudflare [<DIRECTORY>] --type=pre-existing
```

```
pnpm create cloudflare@latest [<DIRECTORY>] --type=pre-existing
```

After you run this command - and work through the prompts - your local changes will not automatically sync with dashboard. So, once you download your script, continue using the CLI.
