Requirements

Getting Started

pnpm create start-ui --web myApp

That will scaffold a new folder with the latest version of πŸš€ Start UI [web] πŸŽ‰

Installation

  1. Duplicate the .env.example file to a new .env file, and update the environment variables
cp .env.example .env

Note

Quick advices for local development

  • DON'T update the EMAIL_SERVER variable, because the default value will be used to catch the emails during the development.
  1. Install dependencies
pnpm install
  1. Setup and start the db with docker
pnpm dk:init

Note

Don't want to use docker?

Setup a PostgreSQL database (locally or online) and replace the DATABASE_URL environment variable. Then you can run pnpm db:push to update your database schema and then run pnpm db:seed to seed your database.

Development

# Run the database in Docker (if not already started)
pnpm dk:start
# Run the development server
pnpm dev

Emails in development

Maildev to catch emails

In development, the emails will not be sent and will be catched by maildev.

The maildev UI is available at 0.0.0.0:1080.

Preview emails

Emails templates are built with react-email components in the src/emails folder.

You can preview an email template at http://localhost:3000/devtools/email/{template} where {template} is the name of the template file in the src/emails/templates folder.

Example: Login Code

Email translation preview

Add the language in the preview url like http://localhost:3000/devtools/email/{template}/{language} where {language} is the language key (en, fr, ...)

Email props preview

You can add search params to the preview url to pass as props to the template. http://localhost:3000/devtools/email/{template}/?{propsName}={propsValue}

Storybook

pnpm storybook

Update theme typing

When adding or updating theme components, component variations, sizes, colors and other theme foundations, you can extend the internal theme typings to provide nice autocomplete.

Just run the following command after updating the theme:

pnpm theme:generate-typing

Generate custom icons components from svg files

Put the custom svg files into the src/components/Icons/svg-sources folder and then run the following command:

pnpm theme:generate-icons

Warning

All svg icons should be svg files prefixed by icon- (example: icon-externel-link) with 24x24px size, only one shape and filled with #000 color (will be replaced by currentColor).

Update color mode storage key

You can update the storage key used to detect the color mode by updating this constant in the src/theme/config.ts file:

export const COLOR_MODE_STORAGE_KEY = 'start-ui-color-mode'; // Update the key according to your needs

E2E Tests

E2E tests are setup with Playwright.

pnpm e2e     # Run tests in headless mode, this is the command executed in CI
pnpm e2e:ui  # Open a UI which allow you to run specific tests and see test execution

Tests are written in the e2e folder; there is also a e2e/utils folder which contains some utils to help writing tests.

Show hint on development environments

Setup the NEXT_PUBLIC_ENV_NAME env variable with the name of the environment.

NEXT_PUBLIC_ENV_NAME="staging"
NEXT_PUBLIC_ENV_EMOJI="πŸ”¬"
NEXT_PUBLIC_ENV_COLOR_SCHEME="teal"

Translations

Setup the i18n Ally extension

We recommended using the i18n Ally plugin for VS Code for translations management.

Create or edit the .vscode/settings.json file with the following settings:

{
  "i18n-ally.localesPaths": ["src/locales"],
  "i18n-ally.keystyle": "nested",
  "i18n-ally.enabledFrameworks": ["general", "react", "i18next"],
  "i18n-ally.namespace": true,
  "i18n-ally.defaultNamespace": "common",
  "i18n-ally.extract.autoDetect": true,
  "i18n-ally.keysInUse": ["common.languages.*"]
}

Production

pnpm install
pnpm storybook:build # Optional: Will expose the Storybook at `/storybook`
pnpm build
pnpm start

Deploy with Docker

  1. Build the Docker image (replace start-ui-web with your project name)
docker build -t start-ui-web .
  1. Run the Docker image (replace start-ui-web with your project name)
