## Enter the Internal Name
The first step is to enter the category's internal name. This is an internal identifier that may be used for later features.

The internal name is used internally by RS-Warehouse and is not normally shown to players.  Enter the name you want to use and confirm it.

## Enter the Display Name
Next, enter the name that players will see when viewing the category.

Choose a clear name that describes the items the category will contain.

For example:
- Building Blocks
- Tools
- Food
- Ores

## Add a Description
The category can have a description that appears in the category menu.

You can add up to five lines of description text.

This is useful for explaining what belongs in the category.

## Choose the Category Icon
Next, select the material that will be used as the category's icon.
