@bpmottathai We have documentation of how to add Netlify CMS to your site: https://www.netlifycms.org/docs/add-to-your-site/. Can you explain more specifically what you are having problems with?

[bsde1234]

I am noob. what I did was

npm install netlify-cms

Then

cd netlify-cms

then

npm run build

it gives

netlify-cms@2.0.9 build /home/name/node_modules/netlify-cms
> cross-env NODE_ENV=production webpack

events.js:183
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event

The copy of netlify-cms you get when npm installing the module is not suitable for development, because all of the development prerequisites (webpack, test runner etc.) are in the devDependencies section of package.json, and thus don't get installed in that case.

Try cloning the repository instead, and run npm install in it:

git clone git@github.com:netlify/netlify-cms
cd netlify-cms
npm install
npm install -g yarn # if you don't have it installed already
npm start

Oh, it's being worked on here: #1645 -- probably not a coincidence :)

What are the pre requirements for netlify. I have nodejs and npm. Any other like react or something I have warning of unmet peer dependency react immutable and slate.

@bpmottathai Are you trying to develop Netlify CMS or just use it on your website?

[bsde1234]

Sorry as I am noob I can't get you. What I need is a site like app.netlify.com for my own under my domain and a netlify template for my own. Is it possible?

[tech4him1]

@bpmottathai There are a few things we need to clear up here:

• netlify.com is a website hosting platform. It doesn't have anything to do with the CMS.
• Netlify CMS is an "editor" for your website content. It can be used with or without Netlify.com.
• If you are just trying to create your own website, you don't need to cd netlify-cms or run it's build -- it has already been built for you.
• The easiest way to get started on creating a website with Netlify CMS if you don't already have one is to use our starter templates and follow those instructions. Here is a link: https://www.netlifycms.org/docs/start-with-a-template/.

[bsde1234]

I don't need to start a template like hugo with netlify cms. I need netlify cms under my domain. I need my customers host their site in git platform.

[tech4him1]

Do you already have a website? If so, what site generator does it use?

[bsde1234]

The website is for my customers not for me. I need a website like cloud cannon

[tech4him1]

The interface that Netlify CMS provides looks like this: https://cms-demo.netlify.com/

Is that what you are wanting?

[bsde1234]

Yes but for my customers. I know it will get by using /admin to hugo or any site in netlify

[tech4him1]

Netlify CMS isn't normally used to edit templates for your site, just the content. If you are creating a website for your customer you will need to create the site first to work with a site generator like Hugo or Jekyll. After you have the site created you can add the CMS interface.

The instructions for adding and deploying it are here: https://www.netlifycms.org/docs/add-to-your-site/.

[tech4him1]

If I am misunderstanding what you are wanting here, I apologize. You may try asking on the Chat: https://gitter.im/netlify/community

[bsde1234]

If I create a site like https://deploy-preview-1645--netlify-cms-www.netlify.com/ when click deploy to domain will it go to app.netlify.com or app.mydomain.com

And I don't need customers hosting in my host instead thay should use github or gtlab
