Example Projects
Should I create a project and install refine before installing examples?
When I install example projects should I install inside my current project or keep any example installs in directories outside of my project?

Hi @scott717. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

To create example projects with Refine, you should follow these steps:
1. Creating a New Project:
You should create a new project using the
create refine-app CLI tool. This tool will help you bootstrap a new project with a lot of features and guide you through the setup process.
Here is the command to create a new project:
This command will prompt you to select your preferences for the project, such as the project template, backend service, UI framework, and other settings.

2. Installing Example Projects:
Once you have created your new project, you can install example projects within this newly created project. This approach ensures that all dependencies and configurations are managed within a single project directory.
For example, after creating your project, you can navigate to the project directory and install additional packages or example components as needed. Here is an example of installing react-dnd and its required packages:

3. Running the Development Server:
After setting up your project and installing any necessary packages or examples, you can start the development server:
This command will start the development server and open a preview of the app in your default browser. If the preview does not appear automatically, you can manually navigate to it by entering the URL <http://localhost:3000> in your browser.

By following these steps, you can efficiently set up and manage your Refine projects, including any example projects or additional components you wish to include.
