Create a new project
Creating a new SimplCMS project is straightforward.
Quick Start
Open your terminal and run the following command:
npx simplcms@latest create-app
This command creates a new Next.js project with SimplCMS installed and pre-configured.
Configure Environment Variables
You have two options for configuring your environment variables:
1. Manual Setup
Create a .env
file in your project's root folder and fill it in according to the prerequisites guide.
2. Configuration Wizard
SimplCMS provides a convenient setup wizard accessible at:
http://localhost:3000/admin/setup
This wizard will guide you through the process of setting up your environment variables interactively.
Run the Development Server
To start the development server locally, navigate to your project directory and execute:
npm run dev
Your SimplCMS project should now be running locally and accessible at:
http://localhost:3000
