# Creator Guide

This guide is for creators who want to launch and share a creator market during the public testnet.

## Before You Launch

Make sure you have:

* Signed in.
* Connected a supported social identity.
* Selected or confirmed your creator profile.
* Switched to Base Sepolia.
* Claimed or received testnet funds if the launch flow requires a transaction.

## Launchpad

Launchpad is where creators start the market creation flow.

The flow may ask you to confirm:

* Creator identity.
* Display name and handle.
* Token details.
* Social links or profile metadata.
* Wallet transaction approval.

## After Launch

After launch, you should review:

* Your creator profile.
* Your market page.
* Token lifecycle status.
* Any launch or trading activity.
* XP, badges, and creator rank.

## Sharing Your Market

Share your creator page or market page with testers. Ask them to check:

* Whether your profile information is correct.
* Whether your market is visible.
* Whether trading and activity display as expected.
* Whether your rank, XP, and badges make sense.

## Creator Rank

Creator rank is a profile and participation signal. It helps users understand creator activity during the testnet, but it does not guarantee market quality, financial performance, rewards, or platform endorsement.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://perps.gitbook.io/perps./overview/creator-guide.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
