Create Superlayer App

Once you know the basics of Superlayer, you may find it useful to be able to quickly scaffold a new Superlayer project. We built @superlayer/create-app to do just that.

We currently offer templates for Next.js, Vite + React, Expo, and Vanilla TypeScript. Follow the quick start below to give it a spin!

#Quick start

If you haven't already, authenticate with the Superlayer CLI in your terminal.

npx @superlayer/cli login

This will open a browser window where you can log in or sign up for an account. Once you've authenticated, any app you create with @superlayer/create-app will be associated with your Superlayer account!

After authenticating, run the following command to scaffold a new Superlayer app.

npx @superlayer/create-app superlayer-demo

Run the dev server to see your new app in action!

cd superlayer-demo
npm run dev

Huzzah! 🎉 You now have a brand new Superlayer project to play around with!

#One-shot with Claude Code

Got Claude Code? You can use it to one-shot a full-stack Superlayer app!

Use @superlayer/create-app with the --ai flag and you'll be prompted to describe the app you want to build. Give it a try!

npx @superlayer/create-app --ai

You can think of this as a one-shot app builder in the terminal.
