# Vite + React + Motoko



### Get started directly in your browser:



[![Open in Gitpod](https://gitpod.io/button/open-in-gitpod.svg)](https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/rvanasa/vite-react-motoko)



This template gives you everything you need to build a full-stack Web3 application on the [Internet Computer](https://internetcomputer.org/).



For an example of a real-world dapp built using this starter project, check out the [source code](https://github.com/dfinity/feedback) for DFINITY's [Developer Experience Feedback Board](https://dx.internetcomputer.org/).



## 📦 Create a New Project



Make sure that [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) `>= 16` and [`dfx`](https://internetcomputer.org/docs/current/developer-docs/build/install-upgrade-remove) `>= 0.14` are installed on your system.



Run the following commands in a new, empty project directory:



```sh

npx degit rvanasa/vite-react-motoko # Download this starter project

dfx start --clean --background # Run dfx in the background

npm run setup # Install packages, deploy canisters, and generate type bindings



npm start # Start the development server

```



When ready, run `dfx deploy --network ic` to deploy your application to the Internet Computer.

## 💡 Tips and Tricks



- Customize your project's code style by editing the `.prettierrc` file and then running `npm run format`.

- Reduce the latency of update calls by passing the `--emulator` flag to `dfx start`.

- Install a Motoko package by running `npx ic-mops add `. Here is a [list of available packages](https://mops.one/).

- Split your frontend and backend console output by running `npm run frontend` and `npm run backend` in separate terminals.
