## Play Online
If you just want to play around with Nuxt in your browser without setting up a project, you can use one of our online sandboxes:
::card-group
:card{title="Open on StackBlitz" icon="i-simple-icons-stackblitz" to="https://nuxt.new/s/v3" target="_blank"}
:card{title="Open on CodeSandbox" icon="i-simple-icons-codesandbox" to="https://nuxt.new/c/v3" target="_blank"}
::
Or follow the steps below to set up a new Nuxt project on your computer.
## New Project
<!-- TODO: need to fix upstream in nuxt/nuxt.com -->
<!-- markdownlint-disable-next-line MD001 -->
#### Prerequisites
- **Node.js** - [`v18.0.0`](https://nodejs.org/en) or newer
- **Text editor** - We recommend [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) with the [official Vue extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Vue.volar) (previously known as Volar)
- **Terminal** - In order to run Nuxt commands
::note
::details
:summary[Additional notes for an optimal setup:]
- **Node.js**: Make sure to use an even numbered version (18, 20, etc)
- **Nuxtr**: Install the community-developed [Nuxtr extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Nuxtr.nuxtr-vscode)
::
::
Open a terminal (if you're using [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com), you can open an [integrated terminal](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/integrated-terminal)) and use the following command to create a new starter project:
::code-group
```bash [npx]
npx nuxi@latest init <project-name>
```
```bash [pnpm]
pnpm dlx nuxi@latest init <project-name>
```
```bash [bun]
bunx nuxi@latest init <project-name>
```
::
::tip
Alternatively, you can find other starters or themes by opening [nuxt.new](https://nuxt.new) and following the instructions there.
::
Open your project folder in Visual Studio Code:
```bash [Terminal]
code <project-name>
```
Or change directory into your new project from your terminal:
```bash
cd <project-name>
```
## Development Server
Now you'll be able to start your Nuxt app in development mode:
::code-group
```bash [yarn]
yarn dev --open
```
```bash [npm]
npm run dev -- -o
```
```bash [pnpm]
pnpm dev -o
```
```bash [bun]
bun run dev -o
```

Well done! A browser window should automatically open for <http://localhost:3000>.
