+= Using the Devfile registry to access devfiles
+
+You can use the devfiles in the *+Add* flow of the *Developer* perspective to create an application. The *+Add* flow provides a complete integration with the https://registry.devfile.io/viewer[devfile community registry]. A devfile is a portable YAML file that describes your development environment without needing to configure it from scratch. Using the *Devfile registry*, you can use a pre-configured devfile to create an application.
+
+.Procedure
+
+. Navigate to *Developer Perspective* -> *+Add* -> *Developer Catalog* -> *All Services*. A list of all the available services in the *Developer Catalog* is displayed.
+
+. Under *All Services*, select *Devfiles* to browse for devfiles that support a particular language or framework. Alternatively, you can use the keyword filter to search for a particular devfile using their name, tag, or description.
+
+. Click the devfile you want to use to create an application. The devfile tile displays the details of the devfile, including the name, description, provider, and the documentation of the devfile.
+
+. Click *Create* to create an application and view the application in the *Topology* view.
