Getting started

Install nstack, create the app, prepare local dependencies, and run the stack.

curl -fsSL https://nstack.tech/install.sh | bash
nstack init my-app
cd my-app
nstack setup
nstack dev

When to run setup

Run nstack setup once after creating a new app or after cloning an existing generated app. It prepares dependencies and local config so nstack dev can run Encore and Nuxt together.

What init creates

nstack init my-app creates an Encore backend, a Nuxt frontend, nstack deployment config, generated app docs for agents, and package scripts that route common workflows through the CLI.

First local run

nstack dev rebuilds the typed Encore client and starts local development. API changes in Encore flow into the Nuxt app through generated client code.
