Hi,

I’ve downloaded one of your templates from your use cases: [Use Cases | Five](https://five.co/use-cases/)

How can I import and see this template in Five?

Hi @TheMaskedDev,

here’s how to import and launch your application:

1. Download the FDF file from our website (think of an FDF file as your application. FDF stands for Five Definition File, and it contains everything that Five needs to know about an application).

2. Follow this video to import the FDF file: [How to Import an Application | Low-Code For Real Developers | Five.Co - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tq7ULfWFfu0)

3. Once imported, click on **Manage**.
