<h1 align="center">⚗️ Nitro</h1>
<p align="center">Build and Deploy Universal JavaScript Servers</p>

## Why use Nitro?

Nitro provides a powerful toolchain and a runtime framework from the [UnJS](https://github.com/unjs) ecosystem to build and deploy **any JavaScript server, anywhere!**

❯ 🐇 **Rapid development** experience with hot module replacement <br>
❯ 😌 **Multi-provider** deployments with a single codebase and zero-configuration<br>
❯ 💼 **Portable and compact** deployments without `node_modules` dependency <br>
❯ 📁 **Directory structure** aware to register API routes and more with zero configuration <br>
❯ 🤏 **Minimal Design** to fit into any solution with minimum overhead <br>
❯ 🚀 **Code-splitting** and async chunk loading for fast server startup time <br>
❯ 👕 **TypeScript** fully supported <br>
❯ 💾 **Multi-driver storage** and caching layer <br>
❯ 💰 **Route caching** and static **pre-rendering** with built-in crawler <br>
❯ 🐱 **Hackable** to extend almost any part of nitro using options <br>
❯ ✨ **Auto imports** for lazy folks and a tidy minimal codebase <br>
❯ 🏛️ **Best-effort compatibility** for using legacy npm packages and mocking Node.js modules <br>

<h2 align="center">😺 Quick Start</h2>

0️⃣ Create an empty directory `nitro-app`

```bash
mkdir nitro-app
cd nitro-app
```

1️⃣ Create `routes/index.ts`:

```ts [routes/index.ts]
export default defineEventHandler(() => "nitro is amazing!");
```

2️⃣ Start development server:

```bash
npx nitropack dev
```

🪄 Your API is ready at `http://localhost:3000/`

Check `.nitro/dev/index.mjs` if want to know what is happening

3️⃣ You can now build your production-ready server:

```bash
npx nitropack build
```

4️⃣ Output is in the `.output` directory and ready to be deployed on almost any VPS with no dependencies. You can locally try it too:

```bash
node .output/server/index.mjs
```

That's it you got it! Read the [documentation](https://nitro.unjs.io) to learn more.
