Local Setup

This starter already has a real first-run path. A buyer should not need to reverse-engineer local setup from scattered scripts.

  1. Install dependencies.
pnpm install
  1. Run the setup CLI.
pnpm continu:init
  1. Start the repo.
pnpm dev

What continu:init Handles​

  • creates missing local env files
  • guides Convex linking and setup
  • syncs runtime env into the selected Convex deployment
  • accepts optional billing, email, and routing configuration
  • can seed demo data or bootstrap a first real account

Local Evaluation Expectations​

  • app host runs at http://localhost:3001
  • the docs site runs separately
  • tenant routing is exercised through *.localhost
  • the default demo path supports org, portal, and platform sign-in flows

Why This Matters To Buyers​

The value here is not just that the app runs. It is that setup is already product-aware: Convex, auth, demo users, and tenant routing are part of the workflow instead of afterthoughts.

Manual Fallback​

If you do not want the guided path, the repo still supports the older manual bootstrap flow. The quickstart in docs/dev covers the lower-level commands.
