# Quickstart

> Set up your brand workspace, connect accounts, and create your first post in daoco.

Use this guide when you are starting a new workspace and want the fastest path to useful output.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create or choose your workspace">
    Open the manage area and choose the workspace and brand you want to work in. The sidebar becomes your main map for Brand, Assets, Campaigns, Inbox, Create Posts, Manage Posts, Connections, and Settings.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set up your brand">
    Start on **Brand**. Paste your website URL when you have one, or answer the onboarding questions manually. Review the extracted positioning, audience, voice, colors, and visual direction before you accept it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect publish targets">
    Open **Connections** and connect the social accounts or integrations you want daoco to use. Pinterest and Dev Testing integrations appear only when their preview flags are enabled.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create a first post">
    Open **Create Posts** or ask in **Brand chat** with `/post`. Review the generated post, select accounts, fix any readiness blockers, then publish now or schedule it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Track the result">
    Use **Manage Posts** for draft, queued, scheduled, and published posts. Open analytics from a published post when performance data is available.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Info>
  Start with your website URL whenever possible. Manual onboarding is useful when you do not have a public site or want tighter control over the first brand profile.
