## 🤔 What is Apache DevLake?
[Apache DevLake](https://devlake.apache.org) is an open-source dev data platform that ingests, analyzes, and visualizes the fragmented data from DevOps tools to extract insights for engineering excellence, developer experience, and community growth.
Apache DevLake is designed for developer teams looking to make better sense of their development process and to bring a more data-driven approach to their own practices. You can ask Apache DevLake many questions regarding your development process. Just connect and query.
## 🎯 What can be accomplished with Apache DevLake?
1. Your Dev Data lives in many silos and tools. DevLake brings them all together to give you a complete view of your Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).
2. From DORA to scrum retros, DevLake implements metrics effortlessly with prebuilt dashboards supporting common frameworks and goals.
3. DevLake fits teams of all shapes and sizes, and can be readily extended to support new data sources, metrics, and dashboards, with a flexible framework for data collection and transformation.

## 🤓 How do I use DevLake?
### 1. Set up DevLake
You can set up Apache DevLake by following our step-by-step instructions for [Install via Docker Compose](https://devlake.apache.org/docs/GettingStarted/DockerComposeSetup) or [Install via Helm](https://devlake.apache.org/docs/GettingStarted/HelmSetup).
Please see detailed instructions [here](https://devlake.apache.org/docs/Overview/Introduction#how-do-i-use-devlake), and ask the community if you get stuck at any point.
### 2. Create a Blueprint
The DevLake Configuration UI will guide you through the process (a Blueprint) to define the data connections, data scope, transformation and sync frequency of the data you wish to collect.
### 3. Track the Blueprint's progress
You can track the progress of the Blueprint you have just set up.
### 4. View the pre-built dashboards
Once the first run of the Blueprint is completed, you can view the corresponding dashboards.
### 5. Customize the dashboards with SQL
If the pre-built dashboards are limited for your use cases, you can always customize or create your own metrics or dashboards with SQL.
