## Overview

Solana provides powerful tools for creating and managing decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) through its SPL Governance program. This tutorial guides you through building governance systems on Solana using Realms.

Key topics covered:

- Understanding Solana's governance framework and token-based voting
- Setting up a governance realm with the SPL Governance program
- Creating proposals, voting instructions, and execution mechanics
- Implementing various voting strategies (token-weighted, member-based, etc.)
- Building a governance UI using the Realms SDK
- Securing treasury management through DAO-controlled accounts
- Advanced governance patterns and security considerations

By the end of this tutorial, you'll be able to create customized governance systems for your Solana projects, enabling decentralized decision-making and community-driven development. DAO tooling on Solana is highly efficient due to the chain's low fees and fast finality, making complex governance systems practical and accessible. 

Learn how to create decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) and governance protocols on Solana using SPL Governance and Realms.
