Introduction

How to get started with aftok.com!

This guide will introduce you to all the things you need to know to start a project, track the time you spend working on it, and bill your customers. This documentation is a work in progress (as is the site as a whole), but the goal is for it to comprehensively cover the currently implemented features. If you have questions that aren't answered here, join the discord chat and we'll try to answer them.

Basic Setup

You'll need a few things to get started working with aftok.com. At present, the easiest way to interact with the server is actually using a set of command-line utilities written in the bash scripting language, which are easily usable from Linux or OSX.

1. You'll need zcashd to be able to create a zcash wallet and produce the viewing keys that aftok.com required to set up billing for your project. See the zcash wallet setup docs to get started.
2. Download the CLI scripts from github.

Those are the essential pieces you'll need for now.
