Here are a few tips to get you started and please check out the <a href=""https://github.com/FanrayMedia/Fanray/wiki"">Wiki</a> for more details.</p><h2>Getting Started</h2><p>First I recommend complete the setup by going to the <a href=""https://github.com/FanrayMedia/Fanray/wiki/Admin---Settings"">Settings</a> page and enter your Disqus and Google Analytics information.</p><p>Bloggers probably spend most of their time writing posts. To help you be productive, I highly recommend spending a few minutes to get familiar with the <a href=""https://github.com/FanrayMedia/Fanray/wiki/Admin---Composer"">Composer</a>, particularly the <a href=""https://github.com/FanrayMedia/Fanray/wiki/Admin---Composer#editor"">Editor</a>.</p><p>The <a href=""https://github.com/FanrayMedia/Fanray/wiki/Admin---Media-Gallery"">Media Gallery</a> gives you a grand view of all your blog images. Here you can upload more images or edit image info etc. The uploaded images are resized and stored on either the file system or Azure Blob Storage, you can configure which <a href=""https://github.com/FanrayMedia/Fanray/wiki/Storage"">Storage</a> in the <code>appsettings.json</code>.</p><p>The <a href=""https://github.com/FanrayMedia/Fanray/wiki/Admin---Categories"">Categories </a>and <a href=""https://github.com/FanrayMedia/Fanray/wiki/Admin---Tags"">Tags</a> pages allow you to easily manage your blog's classifications. For categories there is a default category out of box named <i>Uncategorized</i>, go rename it to something you write about. </p><p>When you are ready to run this app on Azure, please refer to <a href=""https://github.com/FanrayMedia/Fanray/wiki/Deploying-to-Azure"">Deploying to Azure</a>.</p><h2>Contribute</h2><p>Fanray is in its early stages and requires support to move ahead. You can contribute in many ways - ideas, bugs, testing and docs etc. please read the <a href=""https://github.com/FanrayMedia/Fanray/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md"">Contributing Guide</a>. </p><p>Finally, follow me <a href=""https://twitter.com/FanrayMedia"">@fanraymedia</a> and let me know what you think.
