Quick Start

This guide features streamlined instructions for experienced Node.js developers who want to get started with PWA Kit immediately using a demo storefront and a demo sandbox for the back end.

• Node.js 18+ and npm 9+.
• Apple silicon users: If you haven’t installed Rosetta already, run softwareupdate --install-rosetta.

For detailed setup instructions, see Set Up Your Local Environment.

This creates a directory called pwa-kit-starter-project. Open this folder in your text editor and start exploring!

To start your local web server run the following commands:

Now that the development server is running, you can open a browser and preview your storefront:

• Go to http://localhost:3000/

Changes made to your project files will be visible in your browser when you refresh.

After you’ve completed the tasks in this guide, Deploy Your Code.
