Basic Setup

Setting up Muppet is super easy. We can set up the project, write code, develop with a local server, and deploy quickly. The same code will work on any runtime, just with different entry points. Let's look at the basic usage of Muppet.

Starter

Starter templates are available for each platform. Use the following create-muppet command.

npm create muppet@latest my-app

Then you will be asked which transport layer and runtime you would like to use. The template will be pulled into my-app, so go to it and install the dependencies.

cd my-app
npm i

Once the package installation is complete, run the following command to start up a local server.

npm run dev

Next Step

Now that you have a basic setup, you can start writing your code. The starter template will have a basic structure for you to follow. You can start by modifying the src/index.ts file and adding your own tools.

The final export default parts may vary from runtime to runtime, but all of the application code will run the same code everywhere.
