Overview
Here's a step-by-step tutorial for setting up and deploying a project with wxflows, including installing necessary tools, deploying the app, and running it locally. This example consists of the following pieces: - MCP TypeScript SDK (mcp server) - wxflows SDK (tools) > You can use any of the supported MCP clients. This guide will walk you through installing the wxflows CLI, initializing and deploying a project, and running the application locally. We’ll use google_books and wikipedia tools as examples for tool calling with wxflows.
