Commands#

Command	What it does
cli/init\|`nakshora init`	Create a starter nakshora.config.js (and optionally an entry CSS) in the current directory.
cli/build\|`nakshora build`	Compile CSS from your content: full or JIT, minified, with source maps and stats.
cli/dev\|`nakshora dev`	Watch mode — rebuild on every change, plus `--serve` for a dependency-free dev server with CSS hot-swap.
cli/doctor\|`nakshora doctor`	Diagnose your setup: config validity, content globs, versions, common mistakes.
cli/migrate\|`nakshora migrate`	Port a Tailwind CSS project to Nakshora automatically: config, at-rules and dependencies.
cli/lsp\|`nakshora lsp`	Run the language server: completions, hover docs, diagnostics and color previews for any LSP editor.
cli/inspect\|`nakshora inspect`	Explain a class: show the exact CSS a utility (including variants and arbitrary values) produces.
cli/export-ai\|`nakshora export:ai`	Export the machine-readable utility corpus (ai/corpus.json) for LLM training and RAG.

Tip. Every command supports --help for flags. The CLI is also how you run the cli/lsp|language server.
