Getting Started
Set up Varel safely, validate the repo, and know when a release is ready.
Install the CLI, run varel login, then run varel init my-app and choose local-first or launch-ready setup.
Agents and CI can skip prompts with varel init my-app --workflow local-first --integrations clerk,convex,polar,resend,vercel.
.varel/project.json is the Varel setup source of truth for workflow, enabled environments, and integration guidance.
Configure Clerk and Convex together, then Polar sandbox values with POLAR_PRODUCT_IDS, Resend, PostHog, and Vercel preview env.
For internal Varel sales, run pnpm polar:doctor to verify checkout links, benefits, the buyer portal, and GitHub grant state.
Copy .env.production.example to .env.production before syncing production provider values to Vercel.
Run pnpm agent:preflight and pnpm check before broad handoff.
Keep public docs, pricing copy, and implementation behavior aligned before launch.
