# Building on Doma

This guide outlines the steps to start building on Doma Protocol:

1. Tokenize your first domain ([this guide will help](/getting-started.md)).
2. Create API keys using [Doma App](https://app.doma.xyz/account/developers) `Developers` page.
3. Get familiar with Doma APIs (choose the best one for your use case):
   1. [Doma Subgraph](/api-reference/doma-multi-chain-subgraph.md) - easiest way to access Doma Protocol data.
   2. [Poll API](/api-reference/poll-api.md) - if you need to react to events or build your own database.
   3. [Doma Marketplace](/doma-marketplace.md) - if you want to trade tokenized domains.
   4. [Smart Contracts API](/api-reference/doma-smart-contracts-api.md) - if you need low-level no-middlemen access to Doma Protocol.
4. Join [our Discord](https://discord.com/invite/doma) to ask questions, provide suggestions, or report bugs.
