#Quick Start

#Create Project

Run the following command to create an Esmx project:

npm create esmx@latest my-app

yarn create esmx my-app

pnpm create esmx@latest my-app

bun create esmx@latest my-app

deno init --npm esmx@latest my-app

Note: Commands adapt to your package manager automatically. Examples below use npm format.

#Select Template

After running the command, you'll see a template selection prompt:

#Available Templates

#Specify Template

You can also specify a template directly using the -t or --template option to skip interactive selection:

npm create esmx@latest my-app --template vue-csr

#Combined Parameters Example

npm create esmx@latest my-app --template vue-ssr --name my-project --force

#Start Development Server

After creating the project, go to the project directory and start the development server:

cd my-app
npm install
npm run dev

The development server will start at http://localhost:3000.

#Production Build

Build the production version:

npm run build
npm run start

#Troubleshooting

• Node.js version should be >= 24.
• If the port is occupied, modify the npm run dev configuration or adjust the port environment variable.
• If installation fails, check your proxy settings or use a mirror registry.
