## Get Started

Once you have installed the Tabby VSCode extension, you can easily get started by following the built-in walkthrough guides. You can access the walkthrough page at any time by using the command `Tabby: Getting Started`.

1. **Setup the Tabby server**: You have two options to set up your Tabby server. You can either get a Tabby Cloud hosted server [here](https://app.tabbyml.com) or build your own self-hosted Tabby server following [this guide](https://tabby.tabbyml.com/docs/installation).
2. **Connect the extension to your Tabby server**: Use the command `Tabby: Specify API Endpoint of Tabby` to connect the extension to your Tabby server. If you are using a Tabby Cloud server endpoint, follow the instructions provided in the popup messages to complete the authorization process.

Once the setup is complete, Tabby will automatically provide inline suggestions. You can accept the suggestions by simply pressing the `Tab` key. Hovering over the inline suggestion text will display additional useful actions, such as partially accepting suggestions by word or by line.

If you prefer to trigger code completion manually, you can select the manual trigger option in the settings. After that, use the shortcut `Alt + \` to trigger code completion. To access the settings page, use the command `Tabby: Open Settings`.
