DFX Template for Create React App

Three commands to get you creating frontend applications connected to DFINITY canisters

Requirements

• DFINITY SDK (dfx)

1. Clone this repository

git clone https://github.com/taylorham/cra-template-dfx.git

2. Create an app

npm init react-app my-app --template file:./cra-template-dfx Or if you prefer yarn: yarn create react-app my-app --template file:./cra-template-dfx

Be sure to replace my-app with your app name and ensure the relative path to your newly cloned cra-template-dfx directory is correct.

3. Start developing

cd my-app && npm start

This spins up your dfx canister in the background and runs your React app with webpack-dev-server.
