Basic Setup

The setup process for a Headless Akinon Commerce Cloud Storefront will be guided in this page. Follow the steps below to get started.

Installation

  1. To begin, it is recommended to use yarn as the package manager.

    If macOS is the operating system, Homebrew can be used for installation. For non-mac users, npm can be used for a global installation.

    # For macOS users
    brew install yarn

    # For non-mac users
    npm i -g yarn
  2. Next, the storefront needs to be installed by using the projectzero CLI.

    npx @akinon/projectzero --create
  3. Provide the following information:

    • Brand name (eg. Project Zero) (required): Enter the name for your project.
    • Project description (optional): Optionally provide a project description.
    • Commerce URL (optional): Enter the URL to connect with Omnitron. This can be edited later from the environment file.
  4. After providing the necessary information, navigate to the project folder.

    cd project-path/project-name
