FrontMCP is a **TypeScript-first framework** for the [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io).
You write clean, typed code; FrontMCP handles the protocol, transport, DI, session/auth, and execution flow.
```ts
import 'reflect-metadata';
import { FrontMcp, LogLevel } from '@frontmcp/sdk';
import HelloApp from './hello.app';
@FrontMcp({
info: { name: 'Demo', version: '0.1.0' },
apps: [HelloApp],
http: { port: 3000 },
logging: { level: LogLevel.Info },
})
export default class Server {}
```
## Installation
**Node.js 22+** required (24 recommended).
```bash
# New project (recommended)
npx frontmcp create my-app
# Existing project
npm i -D frontmcp @types/node@^22
npx frontmcp init
```
> Full setup guide: [Installation][docs-install]
