How to Get Started: A 3-Step Guide
To help you navigate the process, here is a straightforward guide to get you started.
STEP 1: Set Up Your Identity (Your Catalyst Keychain)
Before you can submit a proposal, you need a Catalyst Keychain. This is the central identity system for all participants in Project Catalyst. Curious about it more? Check our town hall presentation here to learn all about it.
-
Action: If you don’t have one, please follow the guidelines on Catalyst Gitbook to create your Keychain.
-
Requirement: Your goal within the Keychain system is to obtain the “Proposer” role in order to submit a proposal.
STEP 2: Draft & Submit Your Proposal
Once your Keychain is ready, you can begin drafting your proposal in the Catalyst App.
- Action: We highly recommend reviewing the documentation on how to create and submit a proposal in your Workspace. This guide will walk you through the entire process.
STEP 3: Explore Key Resources
We have a comprehensive set of resources to support you. Find what you need from the list below or explore our Catalyst Gitbook further.
