<Steps titleSize="h3">
  <Step title="Sign in to Qlty with your GitHub user">
    <div style={{position: "relative", paddingBottom: "calc(62.517006802721085% + 41px)", height: "0", width: "100%"}}>
      <iframe src="https://demo.arcade.software/uOXuWcgxjzrUn1LwgnRz?embed&embed_mobile=tab&embed_desktop=inline&show_copy_link=true" title="Sign in with GitHub" frameBorder="0" loading="lazy" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen allow="clipboard-write" style={{position: "absolute", top: "0", left: "0", width: "100%", height: "100%", colorScheme: "light"}} />
    </div>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Install our Qlty GitHub Application">
    Qlty integrates as a GitHub Application, which is installed for either a GitHub organization or a GitHub user. We refer to these installations as Workspaces.

    From your Dashboard, click *Add a GitHub Installation*. When GitHub asks where you want to install Qlty, select either your user or one of your organizations. You can authorize Qlty to access all of your repositories or only selected repositories.

    <div
      style={{
    position: "relative",
    paddingBottom: "calc(56.59863945578232% + 41px)",
    height: "0",
    width: "100%",
}}
    >
      <iframe
        src="https://demo.arcade.software/dgaKG0cB3Odjf94yotaY?embed&embed_mobile=tab&embed_desktop=inline&show_copy_link=true"
        title="Install GitHub App"
        frameBorder="0"
        loading="lazy"
        webkitallowfullscreen
        mozallowfullscreen
        allowFullScreen
        allow="clipboard-write"
        style={{
        position: "absolute",
        top: "0",
        left: "0",
        width: "100%",
        height: "100%",
        colorScheme: "light",
    }}
      />
    </div>

    *Note:* Depending on your GitHub organization's configuration, the installation may need to be approved by an organization owner.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add repositories as Projects">
    Next, click the *Add Project* button. Select a repository to add it to Qlty as a Project. Adding the repository will immediately kick off an initial analysis of your default branch.

    You can monitor the progress of the static analysis build by clicking the *Last build* link on the right side of the project navigation. Once the initial analysis completes, you will be able to see code quality metrics, ratings, and issues.

    If your initial analysis errored, see [Troubleshooting](/cloud/troubleshooting).
