# Build on Lumia

**Who this is for:** developers building on Lumia. By the end of this page you'll know where to start, and where every task guide in this section actually lives.

{% hint style="info" %}
New here? Go straight to [Quickstart: your first contract on Lumia](https://app.gitbook.com/s/chmhPiVNAafGw48c4oU2/build-on-lumia/quickstart-your-first-contract-on-lumia). It takes you from an empty folder to a verified, working contract on Beam testnet in one pass. Everything else in this section is a deeper or narrower version of one of its steps.
