# Overview

> How to setup and deploy your token contracts

<Note>
  You can take this step now or after you've already deployed your client
  contracts that will ultimately connect your token(s) to the Forte Rules
  Engine.

  <p>
    To continue with client contracts, skip to the [Deploy App Manager
    guide](/guides/client/deploy-app-manager) now.

</Note>

Tokens are the lifeblood of your web3 applications. The Forte Rules Engine allows you to easily craft rules for your tokens. Choose a path below to get a rules enabled token deployed and ready to connect to the protocol.
