This quickstart is designed for teams that want to evaluate Idelium without committing to a managed service or exposing internal systems.
What you deploy
The demo stack gives you the same operating model used in production: Web, API, database and an execution flow driven by CLI agents.
- Idelium Web for projects, environments, tests and cycles.
- Idelium API for orchestration and results.
- MariaDB for persistent data.
- Idelium CLI for executions from local hosts or CI systems.

Common questions
- Can I run the quickstart without a cloud account?
- Yes. The intended evaluation path is self-hosted and can run on your workstation or inside a controlled lab environment.
- Is the execution agent part of the web stack?
- No. The CLI can run separately, close to browsers, mobile devices, APIs or the CI system that triggers the execution.
