Quick Start with AI

Go from a single prompt to a deployed Wix-managed headless site or app. You describe what you want to build, and your AI agent scaffolds the project, provisions the business and site, and deploys it for you.

This path requires no installation.

Before you begin

Make sure you have:

  • Node.js (v20.11.0 or higher).
  • A Wix account. If you don't have one, sign up.
  • An AI coding agent such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or GitHub Copilot in VS Code.

Step 1 | Build with a single prompt

The Wix Headless skill instructs your AI agent on how to scaffold and deploy a Wix-managed headless project using the Wix CLI. You don't need to install anything to use it.

Caution: This path always provisions a new business and site. If you already have a project, from the self-managed quick start or a dashboard-created headless client, this flow can't attach to it. If you paste an existing siteId or clientId into your prompt, the agent won't use it, and you'll end up with 2 separate, unrelated Wix projects. To build against a project you already have, connect it manually using the JavaScript SDK or REST API instead.

In your AI coding agent, describe what you want to build and include the Headless skill URL. For example:

Copy

The agent provisions the business and site for you and scaffolds the local codebase in one step. The more detail you give, such as the desired pages, data, and design, the more complete the result.

Step 2 | Find your project

Your project lives in 2 places:

  • On Wix: It appears in your Wix dashboard alongside any other Wix sites. Open your dashboard to view the live URL, manage the site, add business solutions, or connect a custom domain.
  • On your computer: The project's code is saved as a folder. Your agent chooses where to put it, so if you're not sure, ask it where it saved the project and note the location. You'll need it to keep editing later.

Step 3 | Keep building

Keep prompting your agent to add features and adjust the design.

For ongoing development, install the Wix plugin in your AI client. It adds Wix Skills and the Wix MCP together, giving your agent persistent Wix context.
