Quickstart

​
Prerequisites

  • Node.js 24+ (check .nvmrc)
  • pnpm 10.32+ (declared in package.json)

​
Clone and install

git clone https://github.com/your-org/radarboard.git
cd radarboard
pnpm install

​
Configure environment variables

Copy the example file and fill in the API keys for the services you want to use: 
cp apps/app/.env.example apps/app/.env.local
You don’t need all services configured to start. The dashboard degrades gracefully — widgets that lack credentials simply won’t display data.
See the Services overview for details on where to get each API key.

​
Start the dev server

pnpm dev
This runs turbo run dev, which starts the Next.js app at http://localhost:3000 and the default portless route at https://radarboard.localhost:1355. For the dashboard app, the portless route is configured for HTTPS by default: 
https://radarboard.localhost:1355
On the first HTTPS run, portless may prompt you to trust its local development certificate authority.
