Can I use a custom --example application?

[Vanals]

Hi,

Can I use a custom nextjs application as a template when calling npx create-next-app --example ?

I would like create my own create-react-app, host it on GitHub, then do something like

npx create-next-app --example[my-url]

I tried and doesn't work/. I get no-match found.

I both tried..

• npx create-next-app --example[nextjs-template-playground][https://github.com/Vanals/nextjs-template-playground]
• npx create-next-app --example[https://github.com/Vanals/nextjs-template-playground]

thank you!

Hello!

You should be able to simply do:
npx create-next-app --example=https://github.com/Vanals/nextjs-template-playground

Thank you @thibautsabot ! It worked. I did not find it clear in the documentation. The equal sign wasn't mentioned!

There is a way to also pass the name? so I do not have to reply to the question once called the command?

Absolutely 🙂.

npx create-next-app --example=https://github.com/Vanals/nextjs-template-playground myname
