## Celest

Celest is the Flutter cloud platform. We enable Flutter and Dart developers to declaratively define their backend infrastructure in Dart.
And to stay up-to-date on the future of Celest, including full server-side rendered Flutter apps, join our newsletter at [celest.dev](https://www.celest.dev/#stay-up-to-date).
## Getting Started
To get started with Celest, you'll need to configure your development environment so that you have Flutter and the Celest CLI installed on your machine.
1. Install [Flutter](https://docs.flutter.dev/get-started/install) from the official website
2. [Download](https://celest.dev/download) and install the Celest CLI
### Creating a project
Once you have the CLI installed, you can create a new project by running the following command:
```bash
$ celest init
```
You can run this command from within your Flutter project which will create a new `celest/` directory for your project. Or you can run
this in another directory to have a standalone Celest project.
Once you have a project, run `celest start` to start a local development environment.
```bash
$ celest start
✓ Celest is running on http://localhost:7777
```
This command will start a local server which will run in the background as you write your backend logic. As you make changes to the files in the `celest/` directory,
the server will hot-reload those changes so you can see them live.
To interact with the running environment, Celest will generate a Dart client which you can use in any Dart or Flutter project. This client
is generated in the `client/` directory of your `celest/` folder. As you make changes in the local environment, this client will be updated to reflect those changes.
### Example
Here is an example of a simple Celest function:
```dart
import 'package:celest/celest.dart';
@cloud
Future sayHello(String name) async {
print('Saying hello to $name');
return 'Hello, $name';
}
```
This function can be called from a Dart project like so:
```dart
import 'package:my_project_client/my_project_client.dart';
Future main() async {
celest.init(environment: CelestEnvironment.local);
final response = await celest.functions.sayHello('World');
print(response); // Hello, World
}
```
## What's Next?
In addition to Dart cloud functions, Celest offers authentication and database services out-of-the-box. To learn more about these features,
and to see what else you can do with cloud functions, visit our [docs](https://celest.dev/docs) and explore the different examples and
packages available in this repo.
