Quickstart

This guide walks you through creating your first Aexol project, writing a specification, and generating production-ready code.

1. Sign Up

Go to aexol.ai and create an account. It takes about 30 seconds. No credit card is needed for the free plan — you get 500 credits to start generating immediately.

2. Create a Project

After signing in, click New Project and give it a name. A project is where your specs and generated code live. You can have multiple projects on any plan.

3. Write Your First Spec

In the Studio editor, you have two options:

  • Write manually — Compose an Aexol spec directly in the Monaco-based editor with syntax highlighting and autocomplete.
  • AI Import — Describe your app in plain English and let AI write the Aexol for you. Open the AI Import panel and type something like:

A blog with authors and posts. Posts have a title, content, and status.

The AI will convert your description into a valid Aexol specification.

4. Validate

Errors appear in real-time in the bottom panel. The validator checks:

  • Type references across your entire spec
  • Required vs optional fields
  • Workflow and permission logic

Fix any issues before generating — the validator keeps your spec consistent so the AI produces correct code.

5. Generate Code

Open the Generate panel and configure your generation:

  1. Select a target language — TypeScript, Python, Rust, Go, or JavaScript
  2. Choose a model — Each model has different credit rates (see Billing)
  3. Click Generate

The AI produces complete, production-ready code from your spec — models, routes, validation, and tests.

6. Refine & Download

Review the generated artifacts in the output panel. Use the Refine feature to improve specific files: select a file, describe what to change, and the AI regenerates just that file while keeping the rest intact.
