Getting Started

The easiest way to try out ForeverVM is using the CLI.

Authenticating

1. Sign up for an account from your terminal:

   npm

   npx forevervm signup

   uv

   uvx forevervm signup

   pip

   pip install forevervm
   forevervm signup

   cargo

   cargo install forevervm
   forevervm signup

2. You’ll be prompted for an account name and email address. We’ll send you an email with your API token. Copy it and log into the CLI:

   npm

   npx forevervm login

   uv

   uvx forevervm login

   pip

   forevervm login

   cargo

   forevervm login

Running code

1. Once logged in, you can open a REPL interface with a new machine:

   npm

   npx forevervm repl

   uv

   uvx forevervm repl

   pip

   forevervm repl

   cargo

   forevervm repl

2. When ForeverVM starts your machine, it gives it an ID that you can later use to reconnect to it. You can reconnect to a machine like this:

   npm

   npx forevervm repl <machine name>

   uv

   uvx forevervm repl <machine name>

   pip

   forevervm repl <machine name>

   cargo

   forevervm repl <machine name>

3. You can list your machines (in reverse order of creation) like this:

   npm

   npx forevervm list

   uv

   uvx forevervm list

   pip

   forevervm list

   cargo

   forevervm list
