Project Setup & Installation
  • Before you get started with the project, you must be familiar with the prerequisites.To get started we are going to go through project setup and installation.

Project Setup

Before you setup grimoire locally on your computer. Make sure you have the follwing installed.

Terminal
git clone https://github.com/kolynzb/Grimoire.git
# Move into project directory(root)
cd Grimoire

Install Packages

  • Install all dependencies for the project to work
Terminal
pnpm i
  • Install the different dependencies in the independent apps (find these in the apps folder) or the app you prefer to contribute to.To find the apps that intrest you check the contribute section of the docs.

VSCode Extension Recommendations

This repository makes use of Visual Studio Code's recommended extensions feature (opens in a new tab). This means: If you use VS Code and open the repository for the first time, VS Code will tell you that the repository recommends to install a handful of extensions. These extensions are recommended if you work with Grimoire and will make contributing much easier. The recommendations are specified in the file .vscode/extensions.json.

If you choose not to install all of the recommended extensions at once (which we recommend), VS Code will show you the recommendations in the extensions sidebar so you can first decide which of the ones you'd like to install and then manually install those you'd like to have.

Using the same extensions as the core developer team will make the code generally more consistent since you will have the same visual feedback.

To Run Project

Terminal
pnpm dev
