# Quick start

## Quick start

Use this page to go from zero to your first Okkult flow.

### Before you begin

* Use an Ethereum wallet.
* Hold ETH for protocol fees and gas.
* Open `https://okkult.io`.

{% hint style="info" %}
Your wallet address is processed locally.

Only the ZK proof is submitted on-chain.
{% endhint %}

### Step 1: Connect your wallet

Connect an Ethereum wallet to start.

If you are not sure which wallet to use, check [Supported Wallets](/getting-started/supported-wallets.md).

### Step 2: Generate a compliance proof

Generate an Okkult Proof before using proof-gated flows.

The proof is generated locally in your browser.

Your wallet address is not sent to a server during this step.

| Item             | Value              |
| ---------------- | ------------------ |
| Fee              | `0.001 ETH`        |
| Validity         | `30 days`          |
| Proof generation | `Local in browser` |

### Step 3: Choose a module to use

After you have a wallet connection and a valid proof, choose the flow you want.

| Module                               | What you can do                                    |
| ------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------- |
