instructions. Thanks Buildspace!

## Prerequisites



Unless you're running this project on Gitpod, the requirements to run this

project are to have the Node.js version installed that corresponds to the

version in `~/.nvmrc` in the root of this project. Using

[nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) is recommended for installing Node.js.

Refer to the

[nvm installation instructions](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm#installing-and-updating)

to get `nvm` set up.



Once `nvm` is installed, you can set up the project. If you opt to not use

`nvm`, ensure that the Node.js version specified in `~/.nvmrc` is installed.



## Setup the project



Run the `bin/setup.sh` script to install everything.



There are known issues with the Windows installation using WSL (reminder that

you need WSL installed) and with M1 Macs, so a friendly Google is your best

friend. If you have figured out how to install it properly in those

environments, please

[create an issue](https://github.com/nickytonline/minty-metaplex/issues/new?assignees=&labels=&template=bug_report.md&title=)

and open a PR linked to that issue.



Remember that you can use [Gitpod](#getting-started-gitpod) if you are having

issues with those environments.



## Contributing



If you are interested in contributing to the project, first read our

[contributing guidelines](./CONTRIBUTING.md). Take a look at our

[existing issues](https://github.com/nickytonline/minty-metaplex/issues), or if

you come across an issue,

[create an issue](https://github.com/nickytonline/minty-metaplex/issues/new/choose).

For feature requests,

[start a discussion](https://github.com/nickytonline/minty-metaplex/discussions)

first.



## Getting Started (Local Development)



1. Install the dependencies



   ```bash

   npm install

   # or

   yarn

   ```



1. Start the project



   ```bash

   npm run dev

   # or

   yarn dev

   ```



Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) with your browser to see the

result.



## Getting Started (Gitpod)



The project can be run in Gitpod. Navigate to

https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/nickytonline/minty-metaplex. If you wish

to load it in Gitpod as an external contributor, you will need to fork the

project first, then open the fork in Gitpod, e.g.

https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/some_user_that_forked_the_repository/minty-metaplex.



1. Gitpod will take a minute or two to load.

1. If this is the first time loading the project in Gitpod, it will take longer

   as all the npm packages are installing.

1. The project wil start automatically in developer mode and the app will load

   in the Gitpod preview window.



For move information on Gitpod, check out the

[Gitpod documentation](https://www.gitpod.io/docs/).



## Running tests



The project uses [jest](https://jestjs.io). For more information on jest, see

the [official documentation](https://jestjs.io/docs/getting-started).



To run tests:



```bash

npm test

# or

yarn test

```



To run tests in watch mode:



```bash

npm test:watch

# or

yarn test:watch

```



## Building out components



When building out components in the project, shared components can go in the

`components` folder. Components can then be imported using the `@components`

alias, e.g. `import { ExampleHeader } from '@components/Header';`.



### Storybook



The project uses [Storybook](https://storybook.js.org) for building our

components. For more on Storybook, see the

[official documentation](https://storybook.js.org/docs/react).



### Running Storybook



```bash

npm run storybook

# or

yarn storybook

```



### Building Storybook Static Site



```bash

npm run build-storybook

# or

yarn build-storybook

```



## Under the hood



### Solana



A fast blockchain for DeFi, NFTs, Web3 and more. Check out the

[official Solana documentation](https://solana.com/developers).



#### Generate a keypair



Run the following commands to generate a keypair for Solana which will confirm

the address and output the Solana configuration



```

solana-keygen new -s

solana address

solana config get

```



#### Airdrop yourself some SOL on the devnet



If you're working on the devnet, it's handy to airdrop yourself some SOL. You

can do the same thing for localhost if you need to.



```

solana config set --url devnet

solana airdrop 5 $ Add your address at the end if it's for a specific account

solana balance

```



For any questions in regards to the commands above, refer to the official Solana

documentation.



### Next.js



This is a [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/) project bootstrapped with

[`create-next-app`](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/tree/canary/packages/create-next-app).



You can start editing the page by modifying `pages/index.tsx`. The page

auto-updates as you edit the file.



[API routes](https://nextjs.org/docs/api-routes/introduction) can be accessed on

[http://localhost:3000/api/hello](http://localhost:3000/api/hello). This

endpoint can be edited in `pages/api/hello.ts`.



The `pages/api` directory is mapped to `/api/*`. Files in this directory are

treated as [API routes](https://nextjs.org/docs/api-routes/introduction) instead

of React pages.



To learn more about Next.js, take a look at the following resources:



- [Next.js Documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs) - learn about Next.js

  features and API.

- [Learn Next.js](https://nextjs.org/learn) - an interactive Next.js tutorial.



You can check out

[the Next.js GitHub repository](https://github.com/vercel/next.js/) - your

feedback and contributions are welcome!



### Theme UI



For more on theme UI, check out their

[official documentation](https://theme-ui.com/getting-started).



## Deploy on Vercel



The easiest way to deploy your Next.js app is to use the

[Vercel Platform](https://vercel.com/new?utm_medium=default-template&filter=next.js&utm_source=create-next-app&utm_campaign=create-next-app-readme)

from the creators of Next.js.



Check out our

[Next.js deployment documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs/deployment) for more

details.
