# Build your application

Build and define the data, design elements, and logic that make up your application.

## Agentic AI

Create applications with help from agentic AI. For more information, see [Agentic development on the ServiceNow AI Platform](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/application-development/use-ai-capabilities-in-custom-apps.md).

-   **[Define and build the data model](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/application-development/define-and-build-data-model.md)**  
After planning is complete, define and build the data model. Create one or more tables with fields, load the table with demo data, and verify access controls to the data.
-   **[Create design elements](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/application-development/create-design-elements.md)**  
After the application’s data model is created, secured, and populated with data, create the design elements to access that data.
-   **[Build form and business logic](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/application-development/build-form-and-business-logic.md)**  
The next step in designing an application is to build logic. Logic includes form logic \(what people can and cannot see/use on a form\) and business logic \(rules that govern what happens to data when it is entered\).
