First Steps

Introduction

Before creating a Xeno.JS project, make sure you have:

• Node.js installed;
• npm or another compatible package manager.

Install the Xeno.JS CLI

The recommended way to start a new project is through the official CLI.

You can install it globally:

npm install -g @xeno-js/cli

Or use it directly with npx:

npx @xeno-js/cli

The CLI is used to create and scaffold Xeno.JS applications.

Continue with Create Project.

Manual Installation

If you are setting up an existing TypeScript application instead, install the core package directly:

npm install @xeno-js/core

For a TypeScript Node.js application, install TypeScript and Node.js types as development dependencies when they are not already present:

npm install --save-dev typescript @types/node

The core package can then be configured and bootstrapped through AppBuilder.

Optional Dependencies

Xeno.JS keeps several integrations optional.

For example, if you enable HTTP Core, you install its required dependencies separately:

npm install axios cockatiel

Other integrations may have their own dependencies. Install them only when the corresponding feature is enabled.
