# Introduction

### What is Domino?

Domino is a powerful [automation platform](https://docs.domino.run/docs/concepts) designed to connect different applications and services, enabling you to build sophisticated workflows without extensive coding. At its core, Domino allows you to define triggers (events that start a workflow) and actions (steps that the workflow performs) to automate complex processes.

It's particularly well-suited for tasks involving community engagement, web3 interactions, and marketing campaigns, offering features like automated [quest systems](https://docs.domino.run/docs/quest-management/launching-your-first-quest), customizable [user portals](https://docs.domino.run/docs/domino-portal/setting-up-your-community-portal), and flexible data management through built-in tables.

### What can you do with Domino?

With Domino, you can:

* **Build Custom Automations:** Design workflows visually using the node-based Builder. Connect various app actions, use conditional logic, loops, and [variables](https://docs.domino.run/docs/automations/managing-data-with-variables-and-inputs) to create tailored solutions.
* **Integrate Your Tools:** Connect Domino to a wide range of applications and services through built-in integrations and webhooks.
* **Launch Engagement Quests:** Create and manage [quests](https://docs.domino.run/docs/quest-management/launching-your-first-quest) composed of various [tasks](https://docs.domino.run/docs/quest-management/setting-up-custom-quest-tasks) (e.g., social media actions, content submissions, quizzes) to engage your community. Automate [task validation](https://docs.domino.run/docs/understanding-quest-verification-automation) and reward distribution.
* **Deploy Branded Portals:** Set up [customizable, user-facing portals](https://docs.domino.run/docs/domino-portal/setting-up-your-community-portal) under your own brand to host quest campaigns, complete with user authentication and profile management.
* **Manage Workflow Data:** Utilize built-in [Tables](https://docs.domino.run/docs/automations/working-with-domino-tables) to store, retrieve, and manipulate data directly within your automations.
* **Orchestrate Complex Processes:** Automate multi-step operations, handle data transformations, trigger notifications, and manage resources based on specific events or schedules.
