After you install Polemarch by instructions above you can use it without any further configurations. Interface is pretty intuitive and common for any web application.

Default installation is suitable for most simple and common cases, but Polemarch is highly configurable system. If you need something more advanced (scalability, dedicated DB, custom cache, logging or directories) you can always configure Polemarch like said in documentation at http://polemarch.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
