When depositing into the Island, you have the following two options:
Selecting this option will mint Island shares that represent your position in the pool, giving you exposure to a portion of the trading fees within the Island's liquidity range.
When supplying liquidity to the Island, you have two options depending upon the tokens you hold.
If you have both the Island tokens you can choose to deposit with both the tokens or if you have one of the Island tokens you can use the inbuilt zap feature to deposit with the single token.
You should be holding both the island tokens and select Double-sided as shown below when providing this liquidity.
