# My First Application

In this tutorial, you will create your first Blueprint application. We will adopt the [super-rentals tutorial from EmberJS](https://guides.emberjs.com/release/tutorial/ember-cli/) by replacing the [mirage segment of the original tutorial](https://guides.emberjs.com/release/tutorial/installing-addons/#toc_ember-cli-mirage) with a Blueprint application. If you implement the original EmberJS tutorial, then you will be able to populate the EmberJS application with data from an Application Programming Interface (API) server (*i.e.*, the Blueprint application).

At the end of this tutorial, you will have experience with the following concepts:

* [Creating a Blueprint application](/quick-start/my-first-application/create-your-application.md)
* [Implementing a controller](/quick-start/my-first-application/controllers.md)
* [Defining a route](/quick-start/my-first-application/routers-and-routes.md)
* [Implementing a service](/quick-start/my-first-application/services.md)
* [Implementing a resource controller](/quick-start/my-first-application/resources-and-resource-controllers.md)
* [Validating and sanitizing input](/quick-start/my-first-application/validating-and-sanitizing-input.md)
* [Unit testing your application](/quick-start/my-first-application/unit-testing-your-application.md)
* [Using policies in your application](/quick-start/my-first-application/policies.md)

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://blueprint.onehilltech.com/quick-start/my-first-application.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
