💼 **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>

<h2 align="center">😺 Quick Start</h2>
## 😺 Quick Start

0️⃣ Create an empty directory `nitro-app`
Create an empty directory `nitro-app`

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

1️⃣ Create `routes/index.ts`:
Create a `routes/index.ts`:

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

2️⃣ Start development server:
Start the 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:
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:
