Getting started with Duckity is quite simple. Head over to
[Duckity's Dashboard](https://app.duckity.com/) and log in using your favorite method. If it's your
first time logging in, your account will be automatically created.
## Create an Application [step]
Duckity is divided into one or more applications within your account. You create one application per
project in which you want to integrate Duckity. To create a new application, press on the yellow **+
New Application** button at the top right corner of the screen.
Once you've set the name of it, press on the **✓ Create Application** button. Congratulations! You
now have your first application created.

Additionally, in case your application is a web app, you can set up the CORS origins to fit your
application's origins. For example, if you'll be protecting the login form of your app hosted at
`https://example.com/login`, add `https://example.com` (scheme and host, no path) to your app's
origins. If your application is not a web app, you can leave the CORS origins empty.
</Callout>
## Create a Protection Profile [step]
Applications commonly have multiple features that need to be protected. For example, you may have a
signup form and a login form with different protection needs. For each, you'll create one
**protection profile** with settings tuned to each feature's specific needs.
Each application needs at least one protection profile to work. To create your first one, press the
**+ Create Protection Profile** button.
Set the name to the name of the feature you'll be protecting, like "Sign-up Form" or "Add Friend".
This is for you to recognize it later, it won't be displayed to your users. Once you're done filling
it, press on **✓ Create Protection Profile**.
Copy your protection profile's ID using the button at the top right corner, that's all you'll need
to integrate it into your application.
<Callout>
Don't worry about all the settings displayed for now, you'll learn to tune them later.
</Callout>
## Install an SDK [step]
To integrate your protection profile with your application, you'll need a client-side SDK and a
server-side SDK.
Duckity has multiple official SDKs for you to plug and play.
import { SiC, SiJavascript, SiPython, SiRust, SiReact } from "@icons-pack/react-simple-icons";

<Card href="/sdks/python" title="Python 3" icon={<SiPython />}>

In case we don't have a client SDK for your language yet, you can use the C SDK. It's written in
Rust, you can link to it through the exposed C API, and it wraps all the required encoding and
decoding in a simple API. You may also find the following guide useful:
