This section will guide you through the whole story of [Actor](../index.mdx) development.

You can follow chapters sequentially from [Quick start](./quick_start/index.mdx), where you learn how to create your first Actor in just a few minutes, through the more technical sections describing the whole Actor model, up to the [Performance](/sources/platform/actors/development/performance.md) section, where you learn how to fine-tune your Actor to get the most out of the Apify platform.

## Technology stack

Any code that can run inside of a Docker container can be turned into Apify [Actor](../../index.mdx). This gives you freedom in choosing your technical stack, including programming language and technologies.
