@aphexcms/cli

The official CLI for Aphex CMS. The package is @aphexcms/cli; the command it installs is aphx.

aphx is not aphex. They are two different commands from two different packages. aphx (this package) scaffolds a new project. aphex comes from @aphexcms/cms-core and operates on an existing one — aphex migrate, aphex generate:types — so it is available inside a project, not globally.

Usage

No install needed — create is the only command, and it wraps create-aphex:

npx @aphexcms/cli create my-site

Or install it globally, if you scaffold often:

npm install -g @aphexcms/cli
aphx create my-site

With pnpm:

pnpm add -g @aphexcms/cli
aphx create my-site --template website

Going straight to the scaffolder is equivalent, and one fewer package:

pnpm create aphex my-site
