### Publish an application for the first time

Steps:

1. Click Publish on the toolbar
2. Add an Application Manager to publish to:

* Provide a *name* for your Application Manager
* Enter the *URL* that was provided to you when you signed up for a Stadium Server
* Enter the *email* and *password* that you provided when you signed up for Stadium Server
* Click Save\
  \&#xNAN;*Note:*\
  When publishing to an Application Manager that you previously added, don't add it again; select it from the list of available Application Managers.

3. Click Publish
4. In your browser, provide setup details:
   * Select your application's Login Mode:
     * *Email & Password* - Users will log in to your Application with their email adress and password.
     * *None* - Users will not be required to log in and will have access to all [*Pages*](/features/pages.md) in your Application.
   * Create your application's Admin User: (An Admin User is a user that can access an application's administration features, i.e. maintaining user roles and users.)
     * *When Login Mode is Email & Password* - Provide Email, Password and a display Name.
     * *When Login Mode is None* - No Admin User will be created.
   * If required, edit your application's Connections and Settings.
   * Click the Create Application button.
