The Long Version
Although you’re welcome to click around and peruse the tarot card and suit meanings, this site only really gets interesting if create an account.
Once you’ve got an account, I’d recommend starting by entering Sources. Here you can add descriptions of whatever sorts of media you consult for tarot meanings. When you create a spread or interpretation, you must attribute it to a source. You’re welcome to put your interpretations on the source that was created for you, “[your name]’s Personal Research”. But if you picked up a given bit of information from a book or a Youtube video or your friend Mabel, it’s nice to note that’s where it came from. Source names are shown if you share a reading, so it’s inadvisable to make unflattering remarks in the author field, even if the author is a real dufus. You can also add notes to a source. These are not shared. The notes field would be a better place to let rip your feelings about the author.
After that, you have all you need to create a reading or add interpretations to suits or cards. Although you can start with either one, I might start by recording a reading. When I’m evaluating new software, I like to start by exploring the most important thing. If I didn’t enjoy entering readings, or the way readings appeared once the details are filled in, I wouldn’t stick with that software. It’s no good to spend time entering all your interpretations only to discover that this software isn’t for you.
Then I would begin adding my interpretations to cards and suits.
