Create a new project

January CLI helps you to scaffold a new project configured with all bits and pieces you need to start building your API.

npm create january@latest project-winter

Once done, you should see a new directory called project-winter

cd project-winter

Open it in your favorite code editor and run the following command:

npm run dev

The development environment

By default, the project is configured to use SQLite as the database, Hono as the framework, and Serverize as the cloud provider.

You don't need to install anything else to get started. Just run the server and you are good to go.

You can change this configuration by editing the tools/january.config.js file.
