|
| 7 | Hops is everything you need to develop and deploy a production grade universal web application with [React](https://facebook.github.io/react/). It provides both a **universal runtime** as well as the necessary **build tooling**.
|

|
| 9 | ## Quick start
|
| 10 |
|
| 11 | To create a new Hops application run the following in a terminal:
|
| 12 |
|
| 13 | ```shell
|
| 14 | npx create-hops-app my-hops-app
|
| 15 | ```
|
| 16 |
|
| 17 | _Note: If you prefer to use `yarn`, you can substitute the above command with `yarn create hops-app my-hops-app`._
|
| 18 |
|
| 19 | Then move into the newly created directory:
|
| 20 |
|
| 21 | ```shell
|
| 22 | cd my-hops-app
|
| 23 | ```
|
| 24 |
|
| 25 | And start the development server:
|
| 26 |
|
| 27 | ```shell
|
| 28 | npm start
|
| 29 | ```
|
| 30 |
|
| 31 | This will start Hops in development mode. Visit [http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080) to see your app in the browser and make some changes to the code in your editor to see it live-reloading.
