+# Create a Recipe
+
+## 1. Create a step
+
+### Using the SDK
+
+You will want to use the SDK when you are opening directories, editing files, using models, etc.
+
+This will ensure that these actions are recorded as steps, so they are reviewable, reversable, and rerunnable.
+
+### Allow for configurability
+
+Steps can include optional parameters that allow users to configure them
+
+```python
+from continueos import ContinueSDK
+
+class CreatePytestsStep(Step):
+
+    input_file_path: str
+    output_file_prefix: str
+    output_dir_path: str
+
+    async def run(self, sdk: ContinueSDK):
+
+        code = await sdk.ide.readFile(self.input_file_path)
+        sdk.run_step(CreateDirStep(output_dir_path))
+        sdk.run_step(WritePytestsStep(code, output_file_prefix, output_dir_path))
+```
+
+### Adjust for different OS
+
+You might want to implement your steps, so that they can run on Linux, MacOS, and Windows.
+
+```python
+from continueos import ContinueSDK
+import platform
+
+class SetUpVenvStep(Step):
+
+    async def run(self, sdk: ContinueSDK):
+
+        os = platform.system()
+
+        if os == "Windows":
+            await sdk.run("python -m venv env; .\\env\\Scripts\\activate")
+        else:
+            await sdk.run("python3 -m venv env && source env/bin/activate") # MacOS and Linux
+```
+
+## 2. Compose steps together
+
+By convention, the name of every recipe ends with `Recipe`.
+
+```python
+class CreatePipelineRecipe(Step):
+
+    async def run(self, sdk: ContinueSDK):
+        await sdk.run_step(
+            WaitForUserInputStep(prompt="What API do you want to load data from?") >>
+            SetupPipelineStep() >>
+            ValidatePipelineStep()
+        )
+```
