Quick Start
This handbook is meant to be the definitive guide to using our service. It explains our features and processes in depth. You might never need such detail but it exists as a reference for the time you do. You are not expected to understand all the information in detail. We do expect that you know that this resource exists and you will turn to it in situations that you have questions.
Just like with anything new, there are a few things you should understand before you dive in. So let's briefly touch on those so you can get on your way!
