nowaki

The Nowaki CLI: a Rust-powered bundler, dev server, and static-site generator for the Nowaki web framework.

This package ships a small Node wrapper that runs a prebuilt native binary for your platform. No Rust toolchain required.

Install

Per project (recommended):

npm install --save-dev nowaki
# or: pnpm add -D nowaki

Globally:

npm install -g nowaki
nowaki --version

Usage

nowaki dev [dir]          # Dev server (HMR + Islands hydration)
nowaki build [dir]        # Production build (client + server)
nowaki start [dir]        # Serve the built app
nowaki prerender [dir]    # Static site generation (SSG)

Scaffold a new app with npm create nowaki@latest my-app.

How it works

The native binary is distributed as platform-specific optional dependencies (@nowaki-dev/cli-darwin-arm64, @nowaki-dev/cli-linux-x64-gnu, …). npm/pnpm installs only the one matching your os/cpu/libc, and this wrapper resolves and executes it. There is no postinstall step, so it works with --ignore-scripts too.

Prefer building from source? cargo install nowaki also works.
