About this skill

Initialize Development Environment

Overview

Get a new developer up and running with the Reactive Data Client monorepo.

Steps

  1. Install prerequisites

    • Install Node.js >= 14 via nvm: nvm install
    • Enable Corepack for Yarn 4: corepack enable
    • Verify Yarn: yarn --version (should be 4.x)

  2. Install dependencies

    • Run yarn install from repo root
    • This installs all workspace dependencies

  3. Build the project

    • Run yarn build to build all packages
    • This runs TypeScript compilation and Babel transforms

  4. Run tests

    • Run yarn test to verify everything works
    • Tests use Jest with projects: ReactDOM, Node, ReactNative

  5. Project familiarization

    • Review monorepo structure:
      • packages/endpoint – Base endpoints and declarative schemas
      • packages/rest – REST modeling (resource(), RestEndpoint)
      • packages/core – Framework-agnostic normalized store
      • packages/react – React hooks (useSuspense, useLive, useQuery)
      • packages/vue – Vue 3 composables
      • packages/normalizr – Schema/Entity/normalization
    • Read official docs
    • Explore example apps in examples/

  6. Optional: Start website locally

    • Use workspace task "website: start" or cd website && yarn start
    • Documentation site runs on localhost

Onboarding Checklist

  • Node.js >= 14 and Yarn 4 ready
  • yarn install completed without errors
  • yarn build succeeds
  • yarn test passes
  • Reviewed packages/ structure
  • Read CONTRIBUTING.md
  • Explored an example app (examples/todo-app or examples/github-app)

  • →When the user does not have nvm installed

Prerequisites

Limitations

  • →Requires nvm for Node.js management
  • →Requires Yarn 4
