description: The Flame workflow — dev server, first edit, authoring, and build.
---

Your Flame project is ready — this is the workflow to make it yours.

## 1. Run the dev server

```bash
bun run dev        # or: npm run dev / deno task dev
```

Open http://localhost:3000 — edits to `docs/` and `docu.json` hot-reload instantly.

## 2. Make your first edit

Open `docs/getting-started/overview.mdx` (this file):

1. Change `title` and `description` in the frontmatter — the browser updates live
2. Add a heading below and save
3. New pages appear in the sidebar and search automatically

## 3. Author with directives

Content is plain markdown — components are directives, no JSX:

```md
:::tip
A callout — no JSX needed.
:::
```

See [Components](/docs/guide/components) for the full directive set.

## 4. Build for production

```bash
bun run build      # or: npm run build / deno task build
```

Flat static HTML lands in `.docu/dist/` — deploy anywhere ([Deployment](/docs/guide/deployment)).
