Create Nitro App

The easiest way to create a React app with server-side rendering thanks to Next.js with the modules below :

• Styled-Components - Visual primitives for the component age.
• Typescript - A Static type checker for javascript

• Getting Started — How to create an app

If you run into any issues or have feedback, please file an issue

Overview

yarn global add create-nitro-app

create-nitro-app my-app
cd my-app/
yarn dev

Open http://localhost:3000 to view your running app. When you're ready for production, run npm run build then npm run start.

Start Coding Now

You don't need to install or setup Webpack or Babel. They come packaged with nitro, so you can just start coding.

After running create-nitro-app, you're good to go!

Getting Started

Installation

You’ll need to have Node >= 6 on your machine. You can use nvm to easily switch Node versions between different projects.

You don't need to use Node as your primary backend. The Node installation is only required for Create Nitro App and running the Nitro.js server in development/production.

Creating an App

To create a new app, run:

create-nitro-app my-app
cd my-app

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

Routing in Nitro.js is based on the file system, so ./pages/index.js maps to the / route and ./pages/about.js would map to /about.

The ./static directory maps to /static in the nitro server, so you can put all your other static resources like images or compiled CSS in there.

Out of the box, we get:

• Automatic transpilation and bundling (with webpack and babel)
• Hot code reloading
• Server rendering and indexing of ./pages
• Static file serving. ./static/ is mapped to /static/

Once the installation is finished, you can run some commands in your project:

npm run dev or yarn dev

Runs the app in the development mode. Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

The page will reload if you make edits. You will also see any errors in the console.

npm run build or yarn build

Builds the app for production to the .nitro folder. It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

npm run start or yarn start

Starts the application in production mode. The application should be compiled with `npm run build` first.

Now you're ready to code & deploy your app!
