Getting started

Before we start coding, let's look at how to download and install Famous so you can develop on your local workstation.

If you'd rather dive in first and learn about setup later, skip ahead to the Creating an App section.

Twitterus Seed Project

For simplicity, we've provided a Twitterus Seed Project that you can fork with the Famous CLI and use to follow along with the lesson. First, install the CLI. Then, run:

$ famous fork twitterus-tutorial
$ cd lesson-twitterus-starter-kit
$ famous dev

The app will be running from a local webserver at localhost:1618.
