### First steps in ReCodEx
You can create an account if you click on the “*Create account*” menu
item in the left sidebar. You can choose between two types of
registration methods by creating a local account with a specific
password, or pairing your new account with an existing CAS UK account.
If you decide a new “*local*” account using the “*Create ReCodEx
account*” form, you will have to provide your details and choose a
password for your account. You will later sign in using your email
address as your username and the password you select.
If you decide to use the CAS UK, then we will verify your credentials
and access your name and email stored in the system and create your
account based on this information. You can change your personal
information or email later on the “*Settings*” page.
When creating your account both ways, you must select an instance your
account will belong to by default. The instance you will select will be
most likely your university or other organization you are a member of.
To log in, go to the homepage of ReCodEx and in the left sidebar choose
the menu item “*Sign in*”. Then you must enter your credentials into one
of the two forms if you selected a password during registration, then
you should sign with your email and password in the first form called
“*Sign into ReCodEx*”. If you registered using the Charles University
Authentication Service (CAS), you should put your students number and
your CAS password into the second form called “Sign into ReCodEx using
CAS UK”.

Although ReCodEx allows using quite weak passwords, it is wise to use a bit
stronger ones. The actual strength is shown in progress bar near the password
field during registration. You will later sign in using your email address as
your username and the password you select.

address). You can change your personal information later on the “*Settings*”

If you cannot remember your password and you do not use CAS UK authentication,
then you can reset your password. You will find a link saying “Cannot remember
what your password was? Reset your password.” under the sign in form. After you
click on this link, you will be asked to submit your email address. An email
with a link containing a special token will be sent to the address you fill in.
