# Get Started

Learn everything from how the Mobile Publisher program works from start to finish, what information you need to gather to distribute your app to your users, and what assets you need to create your branded app.

- **[Pre-Submission Checklist for Mobile Publisher Apps](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.branded_apps_pre_submission_checklist.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Before submitting your Mobile Publisher app for beta or live review, verify these items to avoid common delays and rejections.
- **[Migrating Connected Apps to External Client Apps](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.branded_apps_eca_migration.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    The Mobile Publisher platform is transitioning from using Connected Apps (CA) to External Client Apps (ECA). This migration reduces manual effort and bottlenecks associated with creating and managing Connected Apps.
- **[Create and Publish an App by Using Mobile Publisher for Experience Cloud](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.branded_apps_how_it_works_commun.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    To publish an app using Mobile Publisher for Experience Cloud, sign up for the Mobile Publisher program and create developer accounts with the app platforms where you plan to distribute. Select the Experience Cloud site you want to turn into an app, and then build your app and package it for distribution. Test your app thoroughly before distribution.
- **[Requirements for Mobile Publisher for Experience Cloud](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.s1_branded_apps_requirements_commun.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Mobile Publisher for Experience Cloud supports various mobile platforms, with minimum iOS and Android requirements.
- **[Limitations for Mobile Publisher for Experience Cloud LWR Sites](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=xcloud.branded_apps_lwr_gaps.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Experience Cloud sites are built on one of two frameworks—Lightning Web Runtime (LWR) or Aura. Each framework supports specific templates. Mobile Publisher for Experience Cloud supports all Aura templates and the Build Your Own (BYO) LWR template. Some limitations apply only to apps created from LWR sites. If your users need features that aren’t available with the BYO LWR template, use a site built with an Aura template instead.
