create-kide-app

Scaffold a new Kide CMS project.

Usage

pnpx create-kide-app my-project

The CLI asks for:

1. Project name — directory to create
2. Deploy target — Local/Node.js or Cloudflare
3. Seed demo content — local target only

What it does

• Clones the latest Kide CMS from GitHub.
• Applies target-specific configuration (Node.js adapter, or Cloudflare D1/R2/Workers).
• Installs dependencies with pnpm.
• Optionally creates a GitHub repo (if the gh CLI is installed and authenticated).
• Generates the CMS schema.
• For local: optionally seeds demo content, then starts the dev server.
• For Cloudflare: logs into wrangler (if needed), creates a D1 database and R2 bucket, applies migrations, builds and deploys, and prints the live URL + admin URL.

Requirements

• Node.js >= 22.12.0
• pnpm installed
• git on PATH
• Optional: gh CLI authenticated (gh auth login) for GitHub repo creation
• For Cloudflare: a Cloudflare account (the CLI runs wrangler login for you)
