## Get started

**Coding agent**

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or whichever agent you use:

```text
Help me get started with Specific by following https://start.specific.dev, using the Object Storage example
```



Your agent installs the CLI, clones the example, runs it locally, and walks you through deploying.

**Manual**

1. **Install the CLI and clone**

    ```bash
    curl -fsSL https://specific.dev/install.sh | sh
    ```

    ```bash
    git clone https://github.com/specific-dev/examples.git
    cd examples/node-file-storage
    npm install
    ```

2. **Start the development server**

    ```bash
    specific dev
    ```

    Open the URL shown in the output to access the file manager.

3. **Deploy to production**

    ```bash
    specific deploy
    ```
