# Setup & Initialize

Before rendering any Digital Card Engine views, you need to add the SDK to your project and initialize it with a valid auth token.

Select your platform to get started:

* **[Android SDK — Setup](android-setup.md)** — Add the Maven dependency, configure repositories, and declare required permissions.
* **[Android SDK — Initialize](android-initialize.md)** — Bootstrap `DigitalCardEngineSDK` with a token and configure the style.
* **[iOS MFE — Setup](ios-setup.md)** — Add the Swift Package or CocoaPods dependency.
* **[iOS MFE — Initialize](ios-initialize.md)** — Create a `DigitalCardEngine` instance and apply global styling.
