Getting Started

Once SickRock is installed and running, open the web UI in your browser (by default at http://localhost:8080).

Connect a database

SickRock works on top of real databases. From the UI you can:

  • Add a SQLite or MySQL database connection

  • Browse existing tables and their structure

  • Create table configurations that define how data appears in the UI

Configure tables and views

For each table you want to expose:

  • Define column visibility, ordering, and display options

  • Create table views for different use cases (list, form, dashboard)

  • Set up navigation so users can browse your application

Create API keys

To integrate external tools or AI assistants, create an API key from Settings → API Keys. The same key works for the Connect RPC API, OpenAPI clients, and the MCP server.

Next steps

  • Development — build and run SickRock from source

  • Integration — MCP, Connect API, and OpenAPI

  • Support — community help and issue reporting
