Overview

Parra is a powerful suite of tools to help you build and run your next mobile app. We combine a variety of common services into a single, easy-to-use platform that enables you to build your apps faster and more efficiently. If you're starting a new project, Parra can help you get up and running quickly by generating a starter project, pre-configured with all the tools you need to build a modern mobile app.

Getting started

Choose your own adventure! You can start by creating an account and exploring the dashboard, or you can dive right in with the CLI.

Starting in the Dashboard

Head over to the Parra dashboard to create an account and get started. After you create your account, you'll be walked through a quick onboarding flow. It is recommended that you include as much information as possible during onboarding to help us better understand your needs and to be able to generate a project that is tailored to your requirements.

Starting with the CLI

If you're ready to dive right in, you can start by installing the Parra CLI. The CLI is a powerful tool that allows you to generate a new project that is instantly linked to your account. You can still use the CLI if you've already set up your app in the Parra Dashboard. To get started, run the following command:

brew install parra-inc/tap/parra-cli && parra bootstrap

For more information, check out the CLI documentation.
