Getting Started

Installation

Download the Nerdics app from the official homepage, install the software for your operating system, then register or sign in to start using it.

Guide
Choose the installer that matches your device and meets the platform requirements below.
Run the downloaded installer, finish the installation steps, and launch Nerdics.
Register a new account or sign in with an existing account to enter the product workspace.

What this solves

This guide helps developers use Nerdics installation as part of an AI backend delivery workflow instead of treating generated code as an unverified output.

When to use it

Use it when a generated backend needs to be inspected, executed, repaired, documented, deployed, or monitored by the team responsible for the software.

Step-by-step workflow

Download the installer, launch the app, sign in, create or select a project, and let Nerdics check the runtime environment before generating backend code.

Expected result

The team has a working Nerdics workspace ready for AI backend generation, sandbox execution, API docs, and deployment.

Common issues

Most issues come from incomplete requirements, missing runtime configuration, unclear data models, or API behavior that has not been validated with logs and documentation.

Guide
Open the Nerdics desktop app and click Log in.
Sign in on console.nerdics.com with Google or GitHub.
Create a project or select an existing project, then wait for the runtime environment check to finish.

What this solves

This guide helps developers use the Nerdics quick start as part of an AI backend delivery workflow instead of treating generated code as an unverified output.

When to use it

Use it when a generated backend needs to be inspected, executed, repaired, documented, deployed, or monitored by the team responsible for the software.

Step-by-step workflow

Create a backend from a prompt, review the generated flow, run it in the sandbox, inspect API docs, and deploy only after the generated backend behaves as expected.

Expected result

A developer can move from prompt to running backend system while preserving visibility into source code, logic, logs, and deployment state.

Common issues

Most issues come from incomplete requirements, missing runtime configuration, unclear data models, or API behavior that has not been validated with logs and documentation.

Expanded Flow View

Expand the visual flow to inspect node details. Most users do not need to edit nodes directly; ask the Nerdics development assistant in the chatbox to make adjustments.

Database Area

The Database area shows the local database running inside the Nerdics container. For schema or data changes, ask the Nerdics development assistant in the chatbox.

Source Code Area

The Source Code area maps source files between the virtual environment and the host machine. The code is clean and does not bind to Nerdics-specific content, so you can take it out at any time.

Chatbox Area

The Nerdics AI development assistant helps build complex projects, run flows automatically, fix errors automatically, and make targeted changes across the project.
