To begin your React Vite journey, follow these steps:
- Clone this repository to your local machine using Git or by downloading the source code directly.
- Navigate to the project directory in your terminal or command prompt.
- Install the necessary dependencies by running the command
npm install. - Configure Clerk Authentication (optional):
- Sign up at clerk.com
- Create a new application and get your publishable key
- Create a
.envfile in the root directory:VITE_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=your_publishable_key_here
- Once the installation is complete, start the development server with
npm run dev. - Open your browser and visit
http://localhost:5174to see your React application in action.
This starter includes Clerk authentication. If you don't configure it, you'll see setup instructions on the homepage. To remove authentication entirely:
- Remove the ClerkProvider from
src/main.tsx - Uninstall Clerk:
npm uninstall @clerk/clerk-react - Remove Clerk-related components and imports
When your React application is ready for deployment, you can create an optimized production build. Run the following command:
npm run build
Vite will generate a production-ready bundle in the dist directory. You can then host this folder on any static hosting platform or server.
