# Getting Started

## 1) Join the discord!

[Click here to join](https://discord.com/invite/dzqasrgHNT)

Here we will announce updates on the protocol and we can all plan the future of cities together, then actually build them. We are also here to help you if you get stuck!

## 2) Request funds

After you create your account, navigate to the **Faucet** page in the navbar. Here you can request funds to use to test the protocol. Once requested, the funds should take 1-2 minutes to arrive in your wallet.
