# Integration guides

## Integration guides

Most integrations fall into a small set of patterns.

### Common patterns

1. Add a compliance gate before a restricted action.
2. Add shield and unshield flows for private balances.
3. Add private governance with Okkult Vote.

### Integration checklist

```
App UI -> wallet connection -> proof flow -> contract call -> indexing
```

### Notes

Start with the smallest flow that solves your use case.

Keep proof expiry, gas cost, and recovery UX visible to users.

### Next Steps

* Read **Quick start**.
* Review **Compliance gate**.
* Review **Run relayer node**.
