Status

We're working on it! Things are experimental at the moment.

keystatic.com to try it out (and check out our growing
collection of templates).

Developing Keystatic

If you want to try Keystatic, we recommend following our
guides or using the CLI rather than
running the dev projects in this repo.

They're intended for testing and developing features, and aren't great examples
of actual Keystatic projects.

However, if you want to spin up Keystatic for local development in the monorepo,
you can! Run the following:

sh
pnpm install cd dev-projects/{example} pnpm run dev

Requirements

  • node.js v18
  • pnpm

Note: if you are getting an error with pnpm, make sure you're using
corepack, uninstall pnpm, and then run
corepack enable pnpm.
