  <p className="text-base dark:text-gray-400 text-gray-600 mb-8">Get up and running with BMad Method in minutes</p>

  <Steps>
    <Step title="Install BMad Method">
      Install BMad Method in your project using npx:

      ```bash theme={null}
      npx bmad-method install
      ```

      Follow the interactive prompts to configure your installation. For non-interactive installation, see the [installation guide](/guides/non-interactive-installation).
    </Step>

    <Step title="Get context-aware help">
      Open your AI IDE (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) in your project and run:

      ```bash theme={null}
      /bmad-help
      ```

      BMad Help analyzes your project and tells you exactly what to do next based on your current state.
    </Step>

    <Step title="Start with a workflow">
      Choose a workflow based on your needs:

      * **New project**: Start with brainstorming or PRD creation
      * **Existing project**: Use Quick Flow for features and fixes
      * **Documentation**: Run the document-project workflow

      All agents guide you through structured, proven processes.
