# Get Started

Start using Oden from the portal-first flow, or fall back to manual installation and license activation.

Last validated: 2026-05-05

Start here when you are setting up Oden for the first time. The preferred flow is portal-first: sign up or login to your Voysys portal account, create the vehicle/operator setup there, then use the installer and project configuration.

## Start using Oden

-   [What is Oden?](understand-oden.md) - get a brief intro to Oden.
    
-   [Quickstart](quickstart.md) - use the intended flow for a first vehicle-to-operator stream.
    
-   [Vehicle installation](vehicle-installation.md) - install the vehicle-side Streamer.
    
-   [Operator side](operator-side.md) - install OdenVR and sign in.
    
-   [Projects and web configurations](projects-and-web-configurations.md) - understand project configuration and operator layouts.
    

## Manual fallback

The portal flow should be the normal path for new users.
