Quick Start with CLI

The fastest way to get started is using our CLI:

npx launch-your-app

This will create a new project with all the configurations set up automatically. Follow the authentication prompts in your browser to complete the setup.

​
Prerequisites

Before you start with LaunchYourApp, you need to have the following installed:

​
For iOS development

  • A Mac running macOS
  • Xcode

​
For Android development

​
Running the Project for the first time

After you make the purchase, you will receive a key which you can use to activate the product.

1

Visit https://launchyourapp.dev/activate and enter the key and your github username to activate the product.

You will then be invited to the private repository where you can access the codebase.

Clone the repository to your local machine and chose you repo name:

git clone https://github.com/devsfer1/launchyourapp.git your-new-project-name
cd your-new-project-name

Update the project name

To update the project name, go to your package.json file and change the project’s name.
