# Get started

You can browse published repositories before signing in. To join a Project,
create repositories or run work, sign in to your organisation's Pharos Platform.

## Sign in

1. Open the platform address provided by your organisation and choose **Sign in**.
2. Complete authentication with the available identity provider.
3. On your first visit, wait for account preparation and read and accept the
   platform's Acceptable Use Policy.
4. Continue to your dashboard.

The available sign-in providers depend on the installation. Account preparation
can take time. Follow the status page and use its resume action if it asks for
attention. A policy update may require you to accept the latest version.

## Join your team

Your dashboard shows your Projects and pending invitations. Accept the invitation
for the Project you want to join, then open its page. If your Project is missing,
ask its administrator to check your invitation and membership.

A Project gives you access to its repositories and allocated services according
to your role. Signing in alone does not supply a compute or LLM allocation.

## Choose your next step

- [Open a Project](/guides/projects.md) to see its members, resources and active work.
- [Browse repositories](/guides/repositories.md) to find models, datasets and examples.
- [Run an action](/guides/runs.md) when your Project has the required compute.
- [Open chat](/guides/llm-access.md) when your Project has an LLM allocation.

Use **Sign out** when you finish on a shared computer.
