Scope of this documentation

This documentation focuses specifically on the AI features, architecture, and demo applications included in the TurboStarter AI kit. While we provide comprehensive coverage of AI integrations, for information about core framework elements (authentication, billing, etc.), please refer to the Core documentation.

Our goal is to guide you through setting up, customizing, and deploying the AI starter kit efficiently. Where relevant, we include links to official documentation for the integrated AI providers and libraries.

Setup

Getting started with TurboStarter AI requires configuring the core applications first. For detailed setup instructions, refer to:

<Card title="Mobile app setup" description="Use our detailed guide in the Core mobile documentation to configure your mobile application." href="/docs/mobile/installation/development" icon={} />

After establishing the core applications, you can configure specific AI providers and demo applications using the dedicated sections in this documentation (see sidebar). For a quick start, you might also want to check our TurboStarter CLI guide to bootstrap your project in seconds.

When working with the AI starter kit, remember to use the `ai` repository instead of `core` for Git commands. For example, use `git clone turbostarter/ai` rather than `git clone turbostarter/core`.

Deployment

Deploying TurboStarter AI follows the same process as deploying the core web application. Ensure you configure all necessary environment variables, including those for your selected AI providers (like OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.), in your deployment environment.

For comprehensive deployment instructions across various platforms, consult our core deployment guides:

For mobile app store deployment, refer to our mobile publishing guides:

Each AI demo app may have specific deployment considerations, so check their dedicated documentation sections for additional guidance.
