This quickstart guide shows you how to create your first video and article in Clueso in minutes. By the end, you’ll have both a polished video and a documentation article ready to share with your team or customers.

<Info>
  **Prerequisite**: Before you begin, [create an account](https://web.clueso.io) and complete onboarding.
</Info>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Getting started">
    After you complete the onboarding process, you'll find yourself on the [Clueso home page](https://web.clueso.io).

    At the home page, you'll see four options to create a new video:

    1. Create with Prompt
    2. Record screen
    3. Upload a video
    4. Upload slide decks

    In this guide, we'll record our screen to capture a rough screen recording, and turn that rough recording into a polished video.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Install the chrome extension">
    To capture recordings, you'll need to install the Clueso chrome extension.

    1. Head to the Clueso extension on the [chrome web store](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/clueso-extension/hnfgakkbiefcdbkonflgfkadncclmpme?hl=en-GB\&authuser=0) then click **Add to Chrome** > **Add extension**.
    2. Pin the extension by clicking on the **puzzle icon** in your browser, then click on the **pin icon**.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Capture a screen recording">
    With the Clueso extension now installed, let's start a recording.

    There are two ways to initiate a recording on Clueso. Either click on the Clueso extension icon, or click on the *Record Screen* from the home screen.

    Follow the on-screen instructions to capture a recording on any product of your choice. Explain the process you're following with your voice. There's no need to be perfect here. Just go through the flow roughly.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Edit your video">
    Once you finish your recording, you'll be taken into the video editor.

    Check out [this guide](/getting-started/video-basics) for a more in-depth tutorial on how to edit your first video.
