First steps after installing

Work through these in order — each builds on the one before. All paths are in the admin.

1. Brand. Settings → Brand & business: your store name, logo, square icon, favicon, app brand colour and support contacts. → Branding

2. Market. Markets → Market List → edit the default market: currency, timezone, languages, phone prefix, distance unit, rider pay. → Markets & zones

3. Delivery zones. Zones → Zone List → Add zone: draw the area you deliver to. Stores and customers outside every zone can’t order. → Markets & zones

4. Firebase. Settings → Integrations → paste your service account. Without it, sign-in and push notifications don’t work. → Firebase

5. Google Maps. Settings → Integrations → Google Maps key, for address search. → Google Maps

6. Email. Settings → Email delivery: your SMTP server, then Send test email. → Email

7. Payments. Settings → Payment gateways: enable at least one, or keep cash on delivery only. → Payments

8. Fees and commission. Settings → Delivery & fees and Commission & payouts.

9. Categories. Categories → Category List: check the default categories for each module.

10. The apps. Build the customer, seller and rider apps against your server. → Mobile apps

11. A test run. Sign up as a seller in the seller app, approve the store (Shops → Applications), add a product, order it from the customer app, and deliver it with the rider app.
