# Get started

Build AI agents your users actually depend on. Mastra is a TypeScript framework that gives you everything you need to prototype fast and ship with confidence. Create your first agent with a single command and start building.

## Quickstart

Run this command to create a new project you can test immediately in [Studio](https://mastra.ai/docs/studio/overview):

**npm**:

```bash
npm create mastra@latest
```

**pnpm**:

```bash
pnpm create mastra
```

**Yarn**:

```bash
yarn create mastra
```

**Bun**:

```bash
bunx create-mastra
```
