# Quickstart

> Set up your workspace and publish your first release in a few minutes.

Onset gives you two places to communicate with customers: a **release notes** feed and an in-app **widget**. They both share the same public page.

## Create your workspace

**1. Sign up**

Create an account at [app.onset.io](https://app.onset.io/signup). No credit card required.

**2. Name your workspace**

Your workspace name and slug decide your default public URL: `yourslug.onset.io`. You can change both later in **Settings → Workspace → General**, and point a [custom domain](https://onset.io/docs/page/custom-domains.md) at it.

**3. Invite your team**

Go to **Settings → Workspace → Members** and invite teammates. See [Team members](https://onset.io/docs/guides/team-members.md) for what each role can do.

## Publish your first release

**1. Create a release**

From the dashboard, go to **Releases → New release**. Give it a title and write the body. See [Writing releases](https://onset.io/docs/guides/releases/writing.md).

**2. Add structure (optional)**

Add a [version number](https://onset.io/docs/guides/releases/versioning.md), [labels](https://onset.io/docs/guides/labels.md), a [project](https://onset.io/docs/guides/projects.md), or [contributors](https://onset.io/docs/guides/releases/contributors.md).

**3. Publish**

Publish immediately or [schedule](https://onset.io/docs/guides/releases/publishing.md) it. In the publish dialog you can also notify subscribers by email and post to Slack or Discord.

Your release is now live on your public page, in your RSS/JSON [feeds](https://onset.io/docs/guides/page/feeds.md), and in the [widget](https://onset.io/docs/developers/widget/overview.md) if you've installed it.
