2. Give your app a name
3. Enter the description

Create custom checklist

TIP

For Gitoqlok to indicate you as a checklist author, please configure Git in options before creating a custom checklist. Otherwise, the checklist is going to be authored as "Unknown".

On the Application Checklist landing page find the "add" button. In the creation mode, you can:

1. Enter your checklist components. Make sure to write up concise item names and neat descriptions.

   You can add more sections and items within sections. Drag and drop sections at your convenience.

2. Add QSDA Pro performance check-up. If you add this option your checklist users will be able to integrate QSDA Pro into Gitoqlok to execute application performance check-up.

TIP

Learn more about QSDA Pro to ensure that your applications are optimized for the production environment.
