Create Your First Application Using Accelerator Toolkit
Create your first analytical application using the @gooddata/create-gooddata-react-app
tool.
@gooddata/create-gooddata-react-app
About @gooddata/create-gooddata-react-app
is a CLI-based tool that will guide you through the process of creating the application
step by step in your terminal application.
The tool can create an application that will target either the GoodData platform or GoodData.CN. The created application is ready for use with none or minimal additional configuration needed from your side.
NOTE: By default, the tool creates a new application designated to run on top of the GoodData platform. If you are a
GoodData.CN user, start the tool with an extra --backend tiger
parameter. Remember that an application correctly
bootstrapped to run on top of GoodData.CN will always depend on @gooddata/sdk-backend-tiger
.
This is what is going to happen when you run @gooddata/create-gooddata-react-app
:
@gooddata/create-gooddata-react-app
will download its packages and files to your computer.- When completed, it will ask you to select your domain from the list or let you enter your domain name manually.
- Once you confirm your domain, the tool will install required dependencies and create the structure of your application.
- It will then prompt you to start your application and will open the welcome page in your browser.
