If this is your first time using Zulip, we recommend starting with the web
or desktop experience to set up your account and get oriented.
- Get the [mobile and desktop apps](/apps/). Zulip also works great in a
[browser](/help/supported-browsers).
- [Add a profile picture](/help/change-your-profile-picture) and
[edit your profile information](/help/edit-your-profile) to tell others
about yourself.
- [Review your preferences](/help/review-your-settings#review-your-preferences).
You can [switch between light and dark theme](/help/dark-theme), [customize
the font size](/help/font-size), [pick your favorite emoji
theme](/help/emoji-and-emoticons#change-your-emoji-set), [change your
language](/help/change-your-language), and make other tweaks to your Zulip
experience.
- [Browse and subscribe to channels](/help/introduction-to-channels#browse-and-subscribe-to-channels).
- Decide whether you want <kbd>Enter</kbd> [to send your message
or add a new line](/help/mastering-the-compose-box#toggle-between-ctrl-enter-and-enter-to-send-a-message).
- [Configure your notifications](/#settings/notifications) to work the way
you do. If you're joining a low traffic organization and aren't using the
desktop app, consider sending all messages to email.
