Getting started

This project is using Qwik with QwikCity. QwikCity is just a extra set of tools on top of Qwik to make it easier to build a full site, including directory-based routing, layouts, and more.

Project structure

Inside Qwind template, you'll see the following folders and files:

• src/routes: Provides the directory based routing, which can include a hierarchy of layout.tsx layout files, and an index.tsx file as the page. Additionally, index.ts files are endpoints. Please see the routing docs for more info.

• src/components: Recommended directory for components.

• public: Any static assets, like images, can be placed in the public directory. Please see the Vite public directory for more info.

Commands

All commands are run from the root of the project, from a terminal:

Command	Action
npm install	Installs dependencies
npm run dev	Starts local dev server at 127.0.0.1:5173/
npm run build	Build your production site to ./dist/
npm run preview	Preview your build locally, before deploying
npm run fmt	Format codes with Prettier
npm run lint	Run Eslint
npm run qwik ...	Run CLI commands like qwik add, qwik build

Configuration

Basic configuration file: ./src/config.mjs

export const SITE = {
  name: "Example",

  origin: "https://example.com",
  basePathname: "/", // Change this if you need to deploy to Github Pages, for example
  trailingSlash: true, // Generate permalinks with or without "/" at the end
};

Deploy

Deploy to production (manual)

You can create an optimized production build with:

npm run build

Now, your website is ready to be deployed. All generated files are located at dist folder, which you can deploy the folder to any hosting service you prefer.

Deploy to Netlify

Roadmap

Base

• Create utilities to generate permalinks tailored to the domain and base pathname.
• Simplify the way to optimize images.
• Create component to make SEO simpler and more intuitive.
• Create configurable blog with categories, tags and authors using MDX.
• Add more frequently used pages (Portfolio, Services, Contact, Docs ...).
• Find or create a library to have more icon sources available.
• Refactor some code that doesn't follow Qwik conventions yet.

Advanced

• Achieve perfect 100% Google Page Speed score.
• Insert complex javascript example widget on home page to demonstrate Qwik features.
• Create small illustrative admin backend.

Netlify

This starter site is configured to deploy to Netlify Edge Functions, which means it will be rendered at an edge location near to your users.

Local development

The Netlify CLI can be used to preview a production build locally. To do so: First build your site, then to start a local server, run:

1. Install Netlify CLI globally npm i -g netlify-cli.
2. Build your site with both ssr and static npm run build.
3. Start a local server with npm run serve. In this project, npm run serve uses the netlify dev command to spin up a server that can handle Netlify's Edge Functions locally.
4. Visit http://localhost:8888/ to check out your site.

Edge Functions Declarations

Netlify Edge Functions declarations can be configured to run on specific URL patterns. Each edge function declaration associates one site path pattern with one function to execute on requests that match the path. A single request can execute a chain of edge functions from a series of declarations. A single edge function can be associated with multiple paths across various declarations.

This is useful to determine if a page response should be Server-Side Rendered (SSR) or if the response should use a static-site generated (SSG) index.html file instead.

By default, the Netlify Edge adaptor will generate a .netlify/edge-middleware/manifest.json file, which is used by the Netlify deployment to determine which paths should, and should not, use edge functions.

To override the generated manifest, you can add a declaration to the netlify.toml using the [[edge_functions]] config. For example:

[[edge_functions]]
  path = "/admin"
  function = "auth"

Deployments

You can deploy your site to Netlify either via a Git provider integration or through the Netlify CLI. This starter site includes a netlify.toml file to configure your build for deployment.

Deploying via Git

Once your site has been pushed to your Git provider, you can either link it in the Netlify UI or use the CLI. To link your site to a Git provider from the Netlify CLI, run the command:

netlify link

This sets up continuous deployment for your site's repo. Whenever you push new commits to your repo, Netlify starts the build process..

Deploying manually via the CLI

If you wish to deploy from the CLI rather than using Git, you can use the command:

netlify deploy --build

You must use the --build flag whenever you deploy. This ensures that the Edge Functions that this starter site relies on are generated and available when you deploy your site.

Add --prod flag to deploy to production.
