Getting Started

gpkt

gpkt is a CLI toolchain that helps you get started building a new TypeScript package with everything set up out the gate. You can create a package using one of the official gpkt templates. To get started, use the following command:

npx gpkt

To create a new app in a specific folder, you can send a name as an argument. For example, the following command will create a new Next.js app called blog-app in a folder with the same name:

npx gpkt blog-app

Options

gpkt comes with the following options:

  • --ts, --typescript - Initialize as a TypeScript project.
  • -t, --template [name]|[github-url] - A template to bootstrap the project with. You can use an template name from the Gpkt repo or a GitHub URL. The URL can use any branch and/or subdirectory.
  • --template-path <path-to-template> - In a rare case, your GitHub URL might contain a branch name with a slash (e.g. bug/fix-1) and the path to the template (e.g. foo/bar). In this case, you must specify the path to the template separately: --template-path foo/bar
  • --use-npm - Explicitly tell the CLI to bootstrap the app using npm. To bootstrap using yarn we recommend to run yarn gpkt
  • --use-pnpm - Explicitly tell the CLI to bootstrap the app using pnpm. To bootstrap using yarn we recommend running yarn gpkt

Why use Gpkt?

gpkt allows you to create a new Next.js app within seconds. It is officially maintained by the creators of gpkt, and includes a number of benefits:

  • Interactive Experience: Running npx gpkt (with no arguments) launches an interactive experience that guides you through setting up a project.
  • Zero Dependencies: Initializing a project is as quick as one second. Gpkt has zero dependencies.
  • Offline Support: Create Next App will automatically detect if you're offline and bootstrap your project using your local package cache.
  • Support for Examples: Gpkt can bootstrap your project using an template from the Gpkt templates collection (e.g. npx gpkt --template react).
  • Tested: The package is part of the gpkt monorepo and tested using the same integration test suite as Gpkt itself, ensuring it works as expected with every release.
