Creating a new project

To create a new extension project using xtensio, we recommend using the create-xtensio-app utility, which sets up everything for you. To create a project, run:

> Terminal
yarn create xtensio-app
> Terminal
npx create-xtensio-app

On installation you'll see the following prompts.

> Terminal

 What's the name of your project?  app-name
 Choose preferred package manager  npm / yarn
 Do you want an src folder?  yes/no
 Do you want to use Typescript?  yes/no
 Do you want to use Tailwind Css?  yes/no

After a successful run of the prompts, a folder will be created your app-name and all required dependencies will be installed.

If you're new to xtensio, see the project structure docs for an overview of all the possible files and folders in your application.
