# 🚀 Quick start
If you're new to Moralis, check the [quickstart guide in the official docs](https://docs.moralis.io/docs/quickstart) on how to get started.
If you're already familiar with Moralis and have your server set up. Then follow along to connect your SDK:
## 1. Install Moralis
The easiest way to integrate the Moralis SDK into your JavaScript project is through the npm module.
Install the package via `npm`:
```shell
npm install moralis
```
or `yarn`:
```shell
yarn add moralis
```
Import Moralis:
```js
import Moralis from 'moralis';
```
## 2. Initialize Moralis
After your dependency is added, you simply need to initialize moralis via the `start` method:
> **⚠️ Warning**: Make sure to keep your api key private
```javascript
Moralis.start({
apiKey: 'YOUR_API_KEY',
});
```
After that you can use any Moralis functionalities as described in our [extensive docs](https://docs.moralis.io)

# 👩🔬 Advanced setup
It's possible to install all functionalities of Moralis by installing `moralis` as a dependency. But, you may choose to only install certain modules (as listed below).
## 1. Install the dependencies
Instead of installing `moralis` you can need to install the packages that you want to use. You always need to install the `@moralisweb3/common-core` package. For example:
```shell
yarn add @moralisweb3/common-core @moralisweb3/evm-api
```
Then at the top of your code (before any interaction with Moralis), you need to register the modules to the core package
```javascript
import Core from '@moralisweb3/common-core';
import EvmApi from '@moralisweb3/evm-api';
const core = Core.create();
// Register all imported modules to the @moralisweb3/common-core module
core.registerModules([EvmApi]);
```
Then, initialize the app the same way as when using the umbrella `moralis` package. You only need to provide configuration that is required by the packages. So if you don't include an api package, then you might not need to include the apiKey.
```javascript
core.start({
apiKey: 'YOUR_API_KEY',
// ...and any other configuration
});
```
Now you can use any functionality from the installed modules. The only difference is that you need to call in your code:
```ts
import EvmApi from '@moralisweb3/evm-api';
const evmApi = core.getModule
