Get started with your app development

Get started

Hey maker, welcome 👋

Here's a quick overview of the boilerplate. Follow along to get your app up and running.

Once you're done, start with this tutorial to launch your project in 5 minutes. Let's build that startup, FAST ⚡️

Start a local server

  1. In your terminal, run the following commands one-by-one:
git clone https://github.com/your-repo/your-app.git [YOUR_APP_NAME]
cd [YOUR_APP_NAME]
pnpm install
git remote remove origin
pnpm run dev

This project requires Node 18.17 or greater. Type node -v in your terminal to check version.

  1. Rename .env.example to .env.local
mv .env.example .env.local
  1. Open http://localhost:3000 to see your site. And voila!

NextJS project structure

  • /app → Pages (1 folder + page.js = 1 page)
  • /app/api → API calls (1 file = 1 API endpoint)
  • /components → React components
  • /lib → Libraries helper functions (auth, utils etc.)
  • /prisma → Database models and migrations

Configuration

The app is configured through environment variables. Check the .env.local file and update the values as needed.

.env file

Rename the .env.example file to .env.local. The file content should include necessary environment variables for your app.

Now go ahead and follow the Get Started tutorial to get your app live!
