Start with your AI

Paste this into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or another AI coding assistant. It copies the template into your own private repo, deploys it to Elula and gives you the live URL.

Start a new project from the Next.js + Prisma template at https://github.com/prisma/prisma-examples/tree/latest/orm/nextjs and deploy it to Elula: copy the folder into a new private GitHub repo, install the Elula CLI if needed, then run elula init --database and elula deploy --no-wait. A deploy takes a few minutes: run elula status --wait 60 until it says Live, and tell me which step it's on each time. Run elula docs if anything is unclear. Give me the live URL.
