## Quick Start

### Prerequisites

- **Node.js** >= 20.18 ([download](https://nodejs.org/))
- **npm** >= 9

### 1. Scaffold a new project

```bash
npx @nitrostack/cli init my-server
```

![NitroStack CLI](assets/gif/nitrocli.gif)

### 2. Start developing

```bash
cd my-server
npm install
npm run dev
```

Your MCP server is running. Connect it to any MCP-compatible client.

### 3. Open in NitroStudio

Once your project is scaffolded, open the same folder in NitroStudio for visual testing and debugging.

- Download:
- Open your `my-server` project folder
- Use NitroStudio to test tools, inspect payloads, and chat with your MCP server

## Why NitroStack?

Building MCP servers today means stitching together boilerplate, reinventing authentication, and hoping your tooling scales. NitroStack gives you an opinionated, batteries-included framework so you can focus on what your server actually does.

- **Decorator-driven** — Define tools, resources, and prompts with clean, declarative TypeScript decorators
- **Dependency injection** — First-class DI container with singleton, transient, and scoped lifecycles
- **Auth built in** — JWT, OAuth 2.1, and API key authentication out of the box
- **Middleware pipeline** — Guards, interceptors, pipes, and exception filters just like enterprise backends
- **UI Widgets** — Attach React components to tool outputs for rich, interactive responses
- **Zod validation** — End-to-end type safety from schema to runtime
- **NitroStudio** — A dedicated desktop app for testing, debugging, and chatting with your server

## See It in Action

```typescript
import { McpApp, Module, ToolDecorator as Tool, z, ExecutionContext } from '@nitrostack/core';

@McpApp({
module: AppModule,
server: { name: 'my-server', version: '1.0.0' }
})
@Module({ imports: [] })
export class AppModule {}

export class SearchTools {
@Tool({
name: 'search_products',
description: 'Search the product catalog',
inputSchema: z.object({
query: z.string().describe('Search query'),
maxResults: z.number().default(10)
})
})
@UseGuards(ApiKeyGuard)
@Cache({ ttl: 300 })
@Widget('product-grid')
async search(input: { query: string; maxResults: number }, ctx: ExecutionContext) {
ctx.logger.info('Searching products', { query: input.query });
return this.productService.search(input.query, input.maxResults);
}
}
```

One decorator stack gives you: **API definition + validation + auth + caching + UI** — zero boilerplate.

## Ecosystem

NitroStack is modular. Install only what you need:
The implementation workspace for NitroStack packages lives in [`typescript/`](./typescript).

| Package | What it does | Install |
|:---|:---|:---|
| [`@nitrostack/core`](./typescript/packages/core) | The framework — decorators, DI, server runtime | `npm i @nitrostack/core` |
| [`@nitrostack/cli`](./typescript/packages/cli) | Scaffolding, dev server, code generators | `npm i -g @nitrostack/cli` |
| [`@nitrostack/widgets`](./typescript/packages/widgets) | React SDK for interactive tool output UIs | `npm i @nitrostack/widgets` |

## NitroStudio

NitroStudio is a desktop app purpose-built for developing MCP servers. Open your project folder — it handles the dev server for you.

**[Download NitroStudio](https://nitrostack.ai/studio)**

**Real-time tool testing**
Execute tools, inspect payloads, and debug request/response cycles.

**Built-in AI chat**
Talk to your MCP server through an integrated AI assistant.

- **Widget preview** — Instantly visualize your interactive UI components
- **Hot reload** — Changes reflect in real time as you develop
