# Quickstart

> From installed to a live prep board on the floor in about five minutes.

Go from installed to a live board on the floor in about five minutes.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Install Dashprep" icon="download">
    Add Dashprep from your Shopify admin. See [Install Dashprep](/getting-started/install).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Answer the onboarding questions" icon="wand-magic-sparkles">
    Tell Dashprep your store type, order volume, and preferences. It sets smart defaults so the board looks right for your business. Create your admin login and start your 3-day free trial. See [Onboarding](/getting-started/onboarding).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Let your orders sync" icon="arrows-rotate">
    Dashprep pulls your collections, products, and orders from Shopify automatically. This runs in the background — large stores fill in over a few minutes.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open your board" icon="display">
    Go to your board's address (`yourstore.dash-prep.com`) and sign in with your admin account. Pin it to a screen on the prep floor. See [Open your prep board](/getting-started/your-dashboard).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Work an order" icon="circle-check">
    When an order comes in it appears on the board on its own. Tap an item to mark it done; complete the whole order when it's ready to ship. See [The live board](/board/the-board).
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Do these next

The defaults get you running, but a few minutes of setup makes the board yours:

    Route each product to the station that makes it — cold bench, oven, packing. *(Advanced and Professional plans.)*

  <Card title="Add your team" icon="users" href="/config/team">
    Give everyone on the floor their own login so the whole team shares one board.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Tune your settings" icon="sliders" href="/config/settings">
    Theme, card density, visible fields, and sounds — per person or store-wide.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Pair a wall display" icon="tv" href="/displays/overview">
    Set up an always-on screen that stays signed in and shows the board full-screen.
