Adding a new route
Use this checklist to track your work:
- • Determine name & route for the new app
- • Determine the kind of app to create
- • Create a folder for the new app
- • Mount the new app in the global routes listing
- • Consider next steps
Determine name & route for the new app
If the name of the new app and the desired route have not already been specified, AskUserQuestion to determine that information, e.g. MyApp at /my-app.
Determine the kind of app to create
- •Static: The simplest possible app with static-only content
- •Dynamic: A typical app that fetches data based on route params
Use the answer in the next step.
Create a folder for the new app
- •Choose the correct template directory based on the previous step:
- •Static:
./templates/static/Replace/ - •Dynamic:
./templates/dynamic/Replace/
- •Static:
- •Use that directory as the template for the new subapp
- •Recreate that folder structure under
/src/Apps/<NewApp> - •Replace all instances of
replaceandReplacewith appropriate naming (case-sensitive)
Mount the new app in the global routes listing
Add the new route to the main route list at src/routes.tsx. Follow existing conventions re: alphabetization.
Consider next steps
Additional dev advice:
- •You may need to restart the server for the new route to take effect
- •Then visit http://localhost:4000/{replace} to see your new app
- •Examine the generated code for additional follow-ups
