Usage with RedwoodJS

Get started with a template

The easiest way to get started is to use one of the templates. All templates are configured correctly: they include PostCSS setup, ColorSchemeScript and other essential features. Some templates also include additional features like Jest, Storybook and ESLint.

If you are not familiar with GitHub, you can find a detailed instruction on how to bootstrap a project from a template on this page.
