Getting Started
A 3-step guide to your first session.
Step 1: Start the Daemon
The Repoburg daemon is a background service that manages backend instances for your projects. You need to start it once in a dedicated terminal window:
repoburg-daemon
Note: Instructions for running the daemon as a system service (e.g., using
launchd
on macOS orsystemd
on Linux) will be available soon.
Step 2: Start a Project Backend
Navigate to the code repository you want to work on and run:
cd /path/to/your/project
repoburg start .
This command does several things:
- Authenticates: If it's your first time, it will open your browser to
repoburg.com
to log in and authorize your device. - Starts Backend: It launches a dedicated, local backend server for your project.
- Opens UI: It automatically opens the Repoburg web application at
app.repoburg.com
in your browser, connected to your local backend.
Step 3: Start Coding with AI
The UI is now connected to your project's backend. You can start a new session, type a prompt, and begin generating code!
