Start

pnpm create cen-app@latest

The CLI offers two foundations:

• Agentic CEN Starter (default): TypeScript end-to-end with Hono, Drizzle, React, your choice of shadcn/ui or IBM Carbon, and project workflows built for coding agents.
• FastAPI CEN Template: Python, FastAPI, SQLModel, React, a generated TypeScript client, and your choice of shadcn/ui or IBM Carbon.

Both support company/client SSO, local authentication, backend-only applications, and a stateless API variant. The selected template remains available as a fetch-only upstream remote.

Non-interactive examples

Recommended Agentic setup:

pnpm create cen-app@latest my-app -- -y

Let a coding agent guide setup:

pnpm create cen-app@latest my-app -- --starter agentic --mode guided

Choose an Agentic preset:

pnpm create cen-app@latest my-app -- --starter agentic --preset oauth-proxy-carbon

Choose the FastAPI template explicitly:

pnpm create cen-app@latest my-app -- --starter fastapi --flavour oauth-proxy

Use --no-install to clone without installing dependencies. Requires Node.js 22 or newer, Git, and pnpm; the FastAPI starter also requires uv.
