# Overview: Your catalog from zero to live

> Understand what Supadir is, how it works, and what you'll do in the first session.

Supadir lets you build and run a niche directory — a searchable catalog of businesses, professionals, or services — without writing a single line of code. You manage everything from a web panel. Your visitors browse, search, and contact listing owners directly.

## What you get

* Your own subdomain (e.g. `my-catalog.supadir.com`) or a custom domain like `www.mysite.com`
* A public-facing directory with search, filters, and profile pages
* An admin panel to manage listings, settings, SEO, and payments
* Optional paid listings — you set the price, Stripe handles the rest

## The two roles

| Role              | What they do                                                                                                                |
| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Catalog Admin** | That's you. You configure the catalog, manage listings, invite owners, and collect revenue.                                 |
| **Listing Owner** | A business or professional who has a profile in your catalog. They can manage their own profile and pay for a premium plan. |

## What the first session looks like

<Steps>
  <Step title="Register and choose a plan">
    Go to [app.supadir.com](https://app.supadir.com) and sign up. You'll enter basic billing details and start a **7-day free trial** — no charge until the trial ends.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Run the setup wizard">
    After registration, the wizard guides you through: naming your catalog, picking a subdomain, defining what kind of entities your catalog lists, and (optionally) adding specialization categories.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add your first listing">
    Add a listing manually or invite someone to register themselves.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Customize appearance">
    Set your brand color, upload a logo, and configure the hero section on the homepage.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Go live">
    Share the URL. Your catalog is publicly accessible from the moment the wizard finishes.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  The whole setup takes under 10 minutes. You can always change the name, color, and content later — nothing is locked in after the wizard.
</Tip>
