Getting started

How Federated Core is set up, how you sign in, and where to change settings.

Federated Core is the collection of open-source applications that Federated Computer installs, runs, and maintains for you. Each customer gets their own virtual machine, and each application on it is installed separately for that customer. You use the applications in a web browser (and, for some, in desktop and mobile apps); Federated Computer handles servers, updates, backups, and security patches.

Read these guides in order if you are new. They apply to every application in this documentation.
