Most things we write never turn into projects.

They’re notes, drafts, short explanations, half-finished ideas. Files that live locally and are good enough to share, but not worth setting up properly yet.

Until now, publishing usually meant extra steps: creating a repo, syncing content, logging into a dashboard, deciding where it belongs.

The Flowershow CLI is for a simpler case.

You already have a local file.
You want it accessible on the web.
You don’t want a UI.
You don’t want to make more decisions.

With the CLI, you install it, run `fl`, and get a real URL.

Nothing else required.

**Get started in 3 steps**

1. Install

```bash
   curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/flowershow/flowershow/main/apps/cli/install.sh | sh
   ```

2. Login

```bash
   fl login
   ```

3. Publish

```bash
   fl ./my-folder
   ```

And that’s it 💐

You’ll get a URL that’s ready to share.

This isn’t meant to replace the UI.

The CLI is for people who are already comfortable in the terminal and want publishing to feel lightweight, reversible, and fast. It’s a single binary — no runtime required.

But if you’ve ever thought “I just want this file on the web”, this exists for that exact moment.
