Creating a new project

The easiest way to get started is to create a new project using the nebula CLI through npx:

npx @nebula.js/cli create hello-sunshine

or by doing a global install and running the nebula command:

npm install @nebula.js/cli -g
nebula create hello-sunshine

This will create a directory called hello-sunshine with the following content:

hello-sunshine
├─ README.md
├─ package.json
├─ .editorconfig
├─ .eslintrc.json
├─ .gitignore
└─ src
   ├─ index.js
   └─ object-properties.js

The package.json contains a few built-in npm commands:

`npm start`

Starts a web development server.

The server needs to connect to a running instance of Qlik Engine and by default assumes it's already running on port 9076. If you don't have Qlik Sense desktop installed you can opt-in to start a Docker image of Qlik Engine by accepting the Qlik Core EULA:

ACCEPT_EULA=yes npm start

`npm run build`

Builds the supernova for production into the dist folder. At this stage you can publish the supernova to npm using the command npm publish.

`npm lint`

Checks for code syntax issues.
