Package Exports

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (create-liveblocks-app) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

`create-liveblocks-app`

The easiest way to get started with a Liveblocks starter kit or example.

Get started

You can create a new Liveblocks project using the following command:

npx create-liveblocks-app@latest

The initial prompt allows you to set up one of the following:

Next.js Starter kit—Our official starter kit for Next.js
An example from the Liveblocks repo—Any example from liveblocks/liveblocks

From there, follow the instructions to set up your app! You can also use the CLI to generate a liveblocks.config.(js|ts) config file.

Flags (optional)

If you wish, you can skip certain create-liveblocks-app prompts with the following flags. Please note that these are optional, and if no flags are used, you will be prompted about these options in the installer instead.
