Getting Started

Nimbus deploys serverless functions to an edge network in seconds. This page gets you from zero to a deployed function.

Tip

Already have an account? Skip to deploying your first function.

Install the CLI

npm

npm install -g @nimbus/cli

pnpm

pnpm add -g @nimbus/cli

yarn

yarn global add @nimbus/cli

curl

curl -fsSL https://nimbus.dev/install.sh | sh

Create your first project

1. Authenticate the CLI with your Nimbus account:

   nimbus login

2. Scaffold a new project:

   nimbus init my-app
   cd my-app

3. Start the local dev server, which emulates the edge runtime:

   nimbus dev

4. Deploy:

   nimbus deploy

Note

The first deploy from a new account is rate-limited to 3 regions. Verify your account to unlock all 30 regions.

Next steps

• Deploy your first function — walk through a complete function from code to production.
• Architecture — understand how requests flow through the edge network.
• CLI reference — every nimbus command.
