Membrane

Setup

Membrane Web IDE

Membrane’s primary interface is the Membrane Web IDE. The IDE is where you deploy Membrane programs, set up cron jobs, inspect logs, and more.

Visit membrane.io/ide to get started.

Orienting yourself

When the IDE starts up, you’ll see the Program Navigator (sidebar), Membrane Logs (bottombar), and an open file, hello-world/index.ts.

Membrane Web IDE

There are four Membrane programs pre-installed in your workspace:

  1. http
  2. email
  3. sms
  4. hello-world

We’ll cover each of these in subsequent sections. For now, continue to the next section to create your first program.

Membrane CLI

Membrane also includes a CLI tool called mctl. The CLI is for more advanced use cases and isn’t required when first starting out. Feel free to skip ahead to the next section.

You can install mctl for any platform via npm:

npm install -g @membrane/mctl
