This step includes several aspects of pathway creation, from creating a pathway at WikiPathways, launching the Applet Editor, to adding data nodes, interactions and annotations. All the steps are visually represented in the below video.

You can also click the Create link in the left-hand side panel. Enter "Demo_yourname under the Pathway name field and select Homo sapiens in the species menu. Now click the Create pathway button.

After clicking the button, a new page will open and the pathway editor will be loaded.
