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 tool creates the business, publishes the site, and can keep editing it.

This quick start is the Wix-managed path that starts without the Wix CLI. You don't install anything.

A coding agent on your computer also saves an Astro project in a folder. That project continues on the Astro path, with the Wix CLI. The agent uses Node.js 24.22.1 or higher for that project and installs it when it can.

Before you begin

Make sure you have:

  • A Wix account. If you don't have one, sign up.
  • An AI tool such as ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or GitHub Copilot in VS Code.

You don't need Node.js or the Wix CLI to publish.

Step 1 | Build with a single prompt

The Wix Headless skill tells your AI tool how to create the business, build the site, and publish it on Wix. Include the skill URL in your prompt. You don't install the Wix CLI.

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 use a project you already have, leave the skill URL out of your prompt. Call the JavaScript SDK or the REST API with that project's site ID and client ID.

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

Copy

The tool provisions the business and site and publishes the frontend. A coding agent on your computer also writes the project to a local folder. A chat tool keeps the source on Wix. 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 is 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.

Where you continue depends on the tool:

  • A chat tool, such as ChatGPT or Claude: Wix keeps the source. In the dashboard, click Edit Frontend to open the site in an AI tool or upload new files. A collaborator can open the same site from their own tool.
  • A coding agent on your computer, such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex: the agent also saves an Astro project in a folder. Ask it where it saved the project. You continue that project on the Astro path, with the Wix CLI. Edit Frontend doesn't open these Astro sites in another tool.

Step 3 | Keep building

Keep prompting your tool to add features and adjust the design. From the dashboard, Edit Frontend opens a chat-built site in another AI tool.

To control whether visitors see your changes, open Site Settings in the dashboard. Click Publish to make the latest version live, or Unpublish to take the site offline.
