Create Dosbox

Create js-dos web page with no build configuration.

Create Dosbox works on macOS, Windows, and Linux. If something doesn’t work, please file an issue.

Quick Overview

npx create-dosbox my-app
cd my-app
npm install
npm start
---
Open localhost:8080 in browser

You will be prompted to select game that you want bootstrap.

If you've previously installed create-dosbox globally via npm install -g create-dosbox, we recommend you uninstall the package using npm uninstall -g create-dosbox or yarn global remove create-dosbox to ensure that npx always uses the latest version.

(npx comes with npm 5.2+ and higher, see instructions for older npm versions)

Then open http://localhost:8080/ to see your app.

It will create a directory called my-app inside the current folder. Inside that directory, it will generate the initial project structure:

my-app
├── package.json
└── _site
    ├── js-dos
    ├── bundle.jsdos
    └── index.html

No configuration or complicated folder structures, only the files you need to build your app.

• js-dos - contains last release version of js-dos that you can download from Releases page
• bundle.jsdos - is a bundle with game to start read more
• index.html - is a web page template

So, you can host _site on static web server no other dependincies is needed.

Once the installation is done, you can open your project folder:

cd my-app

Inside the newly created project, you can run some built-in commands:

npm install
npm start

Open http://localhost:8080 to view it in the browser.
