[](https://gitter.im/aws/copilot-cli?utm_source=badge&utm_medium=badge&utm_campaign=pr-badge&utm_content=badge)
* **Documentation**: [https://aws.github.io/copilot-cli/](https://aws.github.io/copilot-cli/)
The AWS Copilot CLI is a tool for developers to build, release and operate production-ready containerized applications
on AWS App Runner or Amazon ECS on AWS Fargate.
Use Copilot to:
* Deploy production-ready, scalable services on AWS from a Dockerfile in one command.
* Add databases or inject secrets to your services.
* Grow from one microservice to a collection of related microservices in an application.
* Set up test and production environments, across regions and accounts.
* Set up CI/CD pipelines to release your services to your environments.
* Monitor and debug your services from your terminal.
## Installation
To install with homebrew:
```sh
$ brew install aws/tap/copilot-cli
```
To install manually, we're distributing binaries from our GitHub releases:
Instructions for installing Copilot for your platform
| Platform | Command to install |
|---------|---------
| macOS | `curl -Lo copilot https://github.com/aws/copilot-cli/releases/latest/download/copilot-darwin && chmod +x copilot && sudo mv copilot /usr/local/bin/copilot && copilot --help` |
| Linux x86 (64-bit) | `curl -Lo copilot https://github.com/aws/copilot-cli/releases/latest/download/copilot-linux && chmod +x copilot && sudo mv copilot /usr/local/bin/copilot && copilot --help` |
| Linux (ARM) | `curl -Lo copilot https://github.com/aws/copilot-cli/releases/latest/download/copilot-linux-arm64 && chmod +x copilot && sudo mv copilot /usr/local/bin/copilot && copilot --help` |
| Windows | `Invoke-WebRequest -OutFile 'C:\Program Files\copilot.exe' https://github.com/aws/copilot-cli/releases/latest/download/copilot-windows.exe` |
## Getting started
Make sure you have the AWS command line tool installed and have already run `aws configure` before you start.
To get a sample app up and running in one command, run the following:
```sh
$ git clone git@github.com:aws-samples/aws-copilot-sample-service.git demo-app
$ cd demo-app
$ copilot init --app demo \
--name api \
--type 'Load Balanced Web Service' \
--dockerfile './Dockerfile' \
--deploy
```
This will create a VPC, Application Load Balancer, an Amazon ECS Service with the sample app running on AWS Fargate.
This process will take around 8 minutes to complete - at which point you'll get a URL for your sample app running! 🚀
