## Before You Start

Make sure you have:

1. **A Waffo Pancake account** — [Sign up here](https://pancake.waffo.ai/merchant/auth/signin)
2. **A store created** — You'll be guided through this during onboarding
3. **Test mode enabled** — All guides use test mode by default, so you can safely experiment

<Tip>
  You can do everything from the Dashboard without writing any code. When you're ready for deeper integration, check the [API Reference](/api-reference/introduction).
</Tip>

## No-Code vs Code

### No-Code (Recommended to start)

1. Create products in Dashboard
2. Copy the checkout link
3. Share anywhere — your website, email, social media

**Best for:** Quick launches, validating ideas, non-technical merchants.

### Code Integration

1. Create checkout sessions via API
2. Handle webhooks for automated fulfillment
3. Build custom flows

**Best for:** Custom experiences, automated delivery, advanced tracking.

<Note>
  All guides start with the no-code approach. Code integration is introduced where it adds value, with links to the API Reference for details.
