# Run a first fu-app example

Start with the smallest workflow described by the README for **fu-app**. Complete [installation and configuration](/docs/up-to-code-fu-app/installation-guide) first.

## Start the project

Complete [installation](/docs/up-to-code-fu-app/installation-guide), then run the root manifest script:

```sh
npm run start
```

Follow the local URL, emulator, or process status printed by the development tool. The manifest establishes the command; it does not establish application credentials or a deployed service.

## Next task

[Read the usage guide](/docs/up-to-code-fu-app/usage-guide) for the documented components, configuration, and source layout.
