# Get Started

- [Maestro documentation](/get-started/readme.md): Overview of Maestro documentation with links to guides, tutorials, and community resources.
- [What is Maestro?](/get-started/what-is-maestro.md): Maestro is an open-source UI automation framework for mobile and web with built-in tolerance, zero-wait intelligence, and declarative YAML syntax.
- [How Maestro works](/get-started/how-maestro-works.md): Learn how Maestro simulates user interactions using the accessibility tree and device-level commands.
- [QuickStart](/get-started/quickstart.md): Install Maestro Studio, set up your environment, and run your first automated test in five minutes.
- [Maestro solutions](/get-started/maestro-solutions.md): Explore Maestro's ecosystem: Studio, CLI, Cloud, and Flows, plus how they fit into local automation and CI/CD workflows.
- [Supported platforms](/get-started/supported-platform.md): Platforms supported by Maestro: Android, iOS, React Native, Flutter, and web applications via UI-layer automation.
- [Android](/get-started/supported-platform/android.md): Configure Maestro for Android app testing with emulators or physical devices.
- [Android Native](/get-started/supported-platform/android/android-native.md): Black-box testing for Android Views and Jetpack Compose via the Accessibility layer. Target elements by text, Resource ID, Content Description, or testTag.
- [Jetpack Compose](/get-started/supported-platform/android/jetpack.md): Black-box testing for Jetpack Compose via AccessibilityService. Prioritizes text-based matching and semantics over testTag for refactoring resilience.
- [iOS](/get-started/supported-platform/ios.md): Black-box iOS testing via the Accessibility layer. Run on Xcode Simulators, handle permissions, test multi-app journeys, and parallelize with Cloud.
- [SwiftUI](/get-started/supported-platform/ios/swiftui.md): Configure SwiftUI apps for Maestro testing with proper accessibility identifiers.
- [UIKit](/get-started/supported-platform/ios/uikit.md): Black-box testing for UIKit via the accessibility layer. Use accessibilityLabel for text and accessibilityIdentifier (gold standard) for id selectors.
- [React Native](/get-started/supported-platform/react-native.md): Configure React Native apps for Maestro testing on both Android and iOS platforms.
- [Flutter](/get-started/supported-platform/flutter.md): Test Flutter apps via the Semantics Tree. Use semanticLabel, Semantics widget, or identifier (Flutter 3.19+) instead of Keys for stable automation.
- [Web Browsers](/get-started/supported-platform/web-browser.md): Test web applications in desktop browsers using Maestro's web automation capabilities.
- [Maestro MCP Server](/get-started/maestro-mcp.md): Use Maestro's Model Context Protocol (MCP) to integrate AI assistants with mobile testing.
