Configure your app

Define how your app runs and which services it uses.


Fluffy uses configuration files in your project. There is currently no automatic project setup command.

#Define how your app runs

The application file, fluffy-chainsaw.yaml, describes your build and the programs or static site it produces. The workspace file, fluffy-chainsaw.workspace.yaml, selects the environments and infrastructure those programs use.

Follow Run backend programs for an API or worker. The manifest reference covers the complete file structure, including static web entrypoints.

#Add the services your app needs

Declare each resource in the application file and grant access to the runtimes that use it:

The generated SDKs guide explains how your code accesses these capabilities.

#Run your app

From the workspace folder:

Terminal
fluffy-chainsaw local

Fluffy builds your app and starts its local services. Run locally explains the terminal controls and local settings. When you're ready to publish, continue to Deploy to GCP.
