# Astro Quick Start

> Start creating Jobs in 5 minutes in your Astro project.

This quick start guide will get you up and running with Trigger.dev.

<Accordion title="Need to create a new Astro project to add Trigger.dev to?">
  No problem, create a blank project by running the `create-astro` command in your terminal then continue with this quickstart guide as normal:

  ```bash
  npx create-astro@latest
  ```
</Accordion>

<Steps titleSize="h3">
  <Snippet file="quickstart-setup-steps.mdx" />

  <Step title="Run the CLI `dev` command">
    <Snippet file="quickstart-cli-dev.mdx" />

    <AccordionGroup>
      <Accordion title="Advanced: Run your Astro server together with the CLI">
        You can modify your `package.json` to run both the Astro server and the CLI `dev` command together.

        1. Install the `concurrently` package:

        <CodeGroup>
          ```bash npm
          npm install concurrently --save-dev
          ```

          ```bash pnpm
          pnpm install concurrently --save-dev
          ```

          ```bash yarn
          yarn add concurrently --dev
          ```
        </CodeGroup>

        2. Modify your `package.json` file's `dev` script.

        ```json package.json
        //...
        "scripts": {
          "dev": "concurrently --kill-others npm:dev:*",
          //your normal astro dev command would go here
          "dev:astro": "astro dev",
          "dev:trigger": "npx @trigger.dev/cli dev",
          //...
        }
        //...
        ```
      </Accordion>
    </AccordionGroup>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Your first job">
    The CLI init command created a simple Job for you. There will be a new file `src/jobs/example.(ts/js)`.

    In there is this Job:

    <Snippet file="quickstart-example-job.mdx" />

    If you navigate to your Trigger.dev project you will see this Job in the "Jobs" section:

    ![Your first Job](https://mintlify.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/trigger-v3-fix-additional-files/images/first-job.png)
  </Step>
