# 1. Meta Developer Account Setup
Before starting development for Meta Quest using Unity, you must create a **Meta Developer Account**. This account is required to enable Developer Mode on your headset and access Meta's XR SDKs and tools.
## 🔸 Why a Developer Account is Necessary
Meta requires developers to associate their account with a **Developer Organization**, even for solo projects. Without this step, you cannot enable Developer Mode on your Meta Quest headset.
## 🔸 Steps to Set Up a Developer Account
1. **Go to the Developer Portal**:
👉 [https://developer.oculus.com/manage/organizations/](https://developer.oculus.com/manage/organizations/)
2. **Login with your Meta Account**:
- You can use your **Facebook** or **Meta/Oculus** login credentials.
3. **Create an Organization**:
- Click on **"Create Organization"**
- Enter a name (e.g., `MetaXRDevOrg2025`)
- Agree to the **Developer Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)**
4. **Verify Email (if prompted)**:
- Ensure you verify your email linked to your Meta account.
5. **You’re Done!**
You are now part of a Meta Developer Organization, which will allow your headset to enable Developer Mode via the mobile app.
> ✅ This is a one-time setup. You can now proceed to enable Developer Mode on your headset.
