Quick Start Guide

Welcome to WeKraft! This quickstart guide is structured directly around the Getting Started checklist on your dashboard. Completing these steps will take you from a fresh sign-up to a fully configured, collaborative, and AI-enabled workspace.

The Onboarding Setup Checklist

Your dashboard tracks 7 key onboarding steps. Here is how to complete each one:

Step 1: Connect your GitHub Account

• Objective: Link your developer profile to your GitHub account to enable sync features.
• Action: From the dashboard checklist, click "Connect GitHub account". This opens the OAuth dialog. Once authenticated, your commits and pull requests can sync with the platform.

Step 2: Link repository to your Project

• Objective: Attach a GitHub repository to synchronize file trees and code changes.
• Action: Click "Link a repository" on the checklist (or go to Repositories in the user menu). Select a connected GitHub repository and link it to your active project workspace.

Step 3: Visit your Project workspace

• Objective: Tour the project layout and command center.
• Action: Click "Go to workspace" to enter the main developer dashboard.

Step 4: Create your first task

• Objective: Populate the task list or backlog.
• Action: Click "Go to Tasks" on the checklist (or navigate to Manage → Tasks inside your workspace and click "+ New Task"). Add a title, priority level, estimation window, and assign it to yourself or team members.

Step 5: Set a project deadline to Track

• Objective: Establish the delivery target date.
• Action: Click "Open workspace overview" on the checklist. Set a final delivery date for your project. This activates metrics tracking such as Milestone Trajectory and Delay Debt.

Step 6: Invite teammates to collaborate

• Objective: Add team members up to your plan limit.
• Action: Click "Invite teammates" on the checklist (or click "Invite" in the header of the workspace). Copy the generated invite link and share it. When they open it, you can approve their join request under the Requests tab in your project dashboard.

Step 7: Unlock your free trial (no charges)

• Objective: Experience premium features.
• Action: Click "Unlock Trial" on your dashboard checklist to activate a 1-week free trial of the Plus plan features without entering credit card details.
