To use Zeta, first install it using pip:

### Setting up a Solana wallet

Please follow the [Solana wallet creation docs](https://docs.solana.com/wallet-guide/file-system-wallet) to set up a wallet if you don’t already have one locally. By default the SDK will look for the wallet at *\~/.config/solana/id.json*

### Getting started

The easiest way to get started is to follow the [code examples](https://zetamarkets-py.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples.html) in order. These walk you through the basics of placing orders, checking balances and streaming market data, all the way to building a simple trading bot.
