Quickstart

From an empty project to your first streamed answer — three steps, no setup beyond an API key.

Prerequisites#

Placeholder text. The real explanation goes here later — structure, edge cases, and an example to follow along with.

1. 1

   Create a key

   Create a new key in the dashboard under Settings → API keys.

2. 2

   Set an environment variable

   Store the key as SMEEWARE_API_KEY, never directly in source.

3. 3

   Send your first call

   Copy the example below and run it — the answer comes back as a stream.

First call#

Placeholder text, replaced later by the real section.

curl https://api.smeeware.dev/v1/chat \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SMEEWARE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "deepseek-v4-flash",
    "messages": [
      { "role": "user", "content": "Hello!" }
    ]
  }'
