BeeZee (BZE) is a community-driven blockchain that makes decentralized tools simple. Trade, stake, burn, launch your own token and give it a home, all from a wallet you control, with no sign-up and no middleman holding your funds.

These docs show you how, one app at a time, in plain language.

## Start here

New to BeeZee? Three steps get you going:

1. **Get a wallet and connect it.** We recommend Keplr; Leap and WalletConnect work too. See [Connecting a Wallet](/using-the-apps/connecting-a-wallet.md).
2. **Get a little BZE** for the network fees. The quickest way is **Buy BZE** in any app's wallet panel. See [Buying BZE](/using-the-apps/buying-bze.md).
3. **Pick an app** below and follow its guide.

**Meet the examples.** Throughout these docs you'll follow two made-up communities: an online book club with its **$PAGE** token, and a gaming guild with **$GUILD**. They're not real tokens; they're there to show what each feature looks like in practice.
