laqi

Installation

Terminal window
npm i -g laqi@2

The @2 pin matters: it installs laqi 2.x specifically, never an older major. One global binary, no account, no cloud, no project dependencies.

Prefer not to install globally? npx laqi@2 runs it on demand, and npm i -D laqi@2 pins it per-project so the whole team gets the same version.

Requirements

Section titled “Requirements”
  • Node.js 20 or newer.

Verify

Section titled “Verify”
Terminal window
laqi --help

That prints the command list. laqi has no --version flag — the version is in the startup banner every time you run it:

⚡ laqi 2.0.0
serving   127.0.0.1:8000

Next step

Section titled “Next step”

Installation is not the goal — a response flipping in the panel is. Head to the Quick start: scaffold a mock API with laqi init and watch your frontend meet its empty state a minute from now.
