Quick Start

Clone fullstackhero and run it locally in under a minute. (The fsh CLI is coming soon.)

The quickest way to run the kit today is to clone the repo and start it with .NET Aspire.

1. Clone the repo

Terminal window
git clone https://github.com/fullstackhero/dotnet-starter-kit.git MyApp
cd MyApp

A clone keeps the original FSH.Starter project names — it doesn’t rename the solution. Once the CLI ships, fsh new MyApp will scaffold a fully renamed project (and fsh doctor will verify your environment first).

2. Run

Terminal window
dotnet run --project src/Host/FSH.Starter.AppHost

Aspire brings up Postgres and Valkey containers, wires connection strings, launches the API host, and enables OTLP export. Open the Aspire dashboard to watch services start; the API serves at https://localhost:5285 with OpenAPI and Scalar at /scalar/v1.

Next

  • Install — every install path (GitHub template, Codespaces, and the upcoming CLI + dotnet new template).
  • Architecture — the modular monolith + VSA mental model.
  • CLI — every fsh command and option (coming soon).
