Build an MCP Server with Mastra

September 4, 20254:00 PM UTC60 minutes

If you have been looking for an opportunity to get hands-on with MCP server development, this is it! The Model Context Protocol allows AI applications to connect to external resources, and Mastra makes building your own server straightforward.

​This session is your chance to learn MCP server creation using Mastra. You'll learn the fundamentals of MCP, discover how to build a custom server from scratch, and see how to deploy it for real-world use. Together we will go through the entire process in less than an hour.

​Build a server that can expose your custom tools and resources to any MCP-compatible client, from Claude Desktop and Cursor to other popular clients. You'll understand the MCP specification, implement server endpoints, and test your creation with live client interactions.

​This event is open to all devs and aspiring AI engineers, regardless of background. You will get access to all the code so it's recommended that you have a code editor and node v20+ if you want to test it out. You should be comfortable with basic JavaScript and the command line. This isn't a talk; it's a live workshop where you'll walk away knowing how to build and deploy a real MCP server.
