Prerequisites

Before we begin, please make sure that you have the following:

Step 1: Create a New Project

To get started with KeystoneJS, we first need to create a new project. Open up your terminal and navigate to the directory where you want to create your new project. Once you're there, run the following command:

$ npm init keystone

This command will create a new KeystoneJS project for you, and prompt you to answer a few questions about your project's name, description, and other settings.

Step 2: Install Dependencies

Once your new KeystoneJS project has been generated, navigate to its directory and install its dependencies by running the following command in your terminal:

$ npm install

This will install all of KeystoneJS's required packages and dependencies, as specified in the package.json file.

Step 3: Start the KeystoneJS Server

With your project's dependencies installed, you're now ready to start the KeystoneJS server. To do this, run the following command in your terminal:

$ npm run dev

This command will start the KeystoneJS server in development mode, allowing you to easily see your changes in real time as you develop your application.

Step 4: Set Up Your KeystoneJS Project

With the KeystoneJS server up and running, you can navigate to http://localhost:3000 in your web browser to see your new project. From here, you can begin setting up your KeystoneJS project, defining your models and routes, and building out your web application as desired.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You now have KeystoneJS successfully installed and running on your Elementary OS Latest system. With this powerful tool at your disposal, you can quickly and easily build complex web applications with ease.
