# liblab.ai
Build internal apps using AI.
Securely connect your database, build an app, and deploy in seconds.
**🚀 [Jump to Quick Start](#-quick-start)** - Get up and running in minutes!
## **✨ Key features**
- Securely connect your database (or use a Sample database)
- Build internal apps that can communicate with your database
- AI builds the whole full-stack app and auto-fixes any issues
- Preview your built app live and make edits
- Download the built app code or connect directly to GitHub
- Deploy your built app
## **🚀 Quick Start**
### **Option 1: Deploy with Docker (Recommended) ⭐**
**Prerequisites**
Node.js (Only required for configuration, not for running the app)
Node.js (version 18 or higher) is needed to run setup/configuration scripts before starting the Docker containers. The application itself will run inside Docker and does not use your local Node.js.
```bash
# Install Node.js using Homebrew
brew install node
# Or use Node Version Manager (nvm)
brew install nvm
nvm install --lts
# Verify installation
node --version # Should show v18.x.x or higher
npm --version
```
pnpm (Package manager, faster than npm)
```bash
# Install pnpm globally
npm install -g pnpm
# Verify installation
pnpm --version
```
Docker (Required for containerized setup)
Install Docker Desktop from [docker.com/get-started](https://www.docker.com/get-started/)
**Verify the Installation**
```bash
docker --version
docker-compose --version
```
Anthropic API Key (Required for AI model access)
Step 1: Create an Anthropic Account
1. Go to [console.anthropic.com/signup](https://console.anthropic.com/signup)
2. Create an account
3. Verify your email
Step 2: Generate an API Key 4. Go to [console.anthropic.com/settings/keys](https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys) 5. Click "Create Key" 6. Give it a name (e.g., "liblab-ai") 7. Copy the API key (starts with `sk-ant-`)
Step 3: Save your API Key
Add this to your `.env` file during setup, but keep it handy:
```bash
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-your-api-key-here
```
Netlify Key (Optional to run the builder. Required to deploy completed apps)
Step 1: Create a Netlify account
1. Go to [netlify.com](https://netlify.com/)
2. Sign up for a free account
Step 2: Generate an auth token 3. Go to User Settings > Applications > New access token 4. Generate and copy your token
Step 3: Add the token to your .env file
```bash
NETLIFY_AUTH_TOKEN=your-token-here
```
Once configured, you can deploy any app you generate through liblab.ai to Netlify using the deploy option in the UI.
[liblab.ai](http://liblab.ai/) runs best on Chrome or Chromium browsers when using a desktop. Mobile browsers don't have full support right now.
Some browser add-ons like ad blockers or VPNs might cause problems. If things aren't working right, try disabling them and reload the page.
**Clone the repo**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/liblaber/ai.git
cd ai
```
**Run the setup**
```bash
pnpm run quickstart
```
**Start with Docker**
After setup is complete, start the app with Docker:
```bash
pnpm run docker:start
```
**That's it! 🎉** The app will be available at [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000/)
### **Option 2: Manual Installation**
**For developers who prefer full control over their environment or need to run without Docker.**
> 💡 Note: We recommend using Docker (Option 1) for the best experience, as it handles all dependencies and provides a consistent environment.
**Prerequisites**
Before starting, ensure you have all the following installed and configured:
Node.js (18 or higher) (Required for running the application)
Option A: Single version of Node, using Homebrew (Recommended for most users)
```bash
# Install Homebrew if you don't have it
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
# Install Node.js
brew install node
```
Option B: Using Node Version Manager (Recommended for developers)
```bash
# Install Homebrew if you don't have it
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
# Install NVM
brew install nvm
# To make the nvm command available, restart your terminal or run:
source ~/.zshrc # or source ~/.bashrc
# Install latest stable Node.js
nvm install --lts
```
Verify Installation
Verify Installation
```bash
node --version # Should show v18.x.x or higher
npm --version # Should show version number
```
pnpm (Package manager, faster than npm)
```bash
# Install pnpm globally
npm install -g pnpm
# Verify installation
pnpm --version
```
