After the authorization, you will be redirect to the Zeabur dashboard automatically.
Click on the Create Project button to create a new project. You can also type CMD + k to open a quick actions menu, where you can find Create Project to proceed.
You will see a modal below to select your project region. Zeabur now supports 2 regions, including ap-east，us-west，eu-central，ap-northeast regions on AWS. asia-east region on GCP is only open to Team Plan users.
Choose the region you want to deploy your service to, and we will create a project for you with a random name, which you can modify it later in the project settings.
If it is your first time to create a project in Zeabur, you may need to follow the instructions to read and agree our terms of service to proceed.

-
Prebuilt Services allows you to deploy a service from a prebuilt marketplace of common services (such as a database or an open source tool), you can see the open source marketplace here.

Once Services allows you to deploy a service that you bought from Once, such as Campfire.
Just choose the service type you want, and you can search for the service you want to deploy.
