# User Pool

UserPool (UserPool) is the core concept in Authing. A developer account can create multiple user pools. One user pool stores the original data of all users. Developers manage users based on the user pool.

A user pool can create multiple applications, and each application has an independent second-level domain name.

For a detailed introduction to the user pool, please refer to Basic Concepts.

# Create your first user pool

Enter the user pool name and second-level domain name, and upload a Logo:

# Try your first application

After the user pool is created, the system will automatically create an application for you. You can check it on the Application-Application List page:

You can click the Experience button to experience online, and click Configuration to enter the application details page to view and modify the default configuration of the application.
