Permissions Errors: On Linux or macOS, if you encounter "EACCES" errors during global installation, avoid using sudo . Instead, use a node version manager like NVM to handle permissions correctly.
If you are adding Codexini to an existing project, navigate to your project root and execute: npm install @codexini/core Step 3: Initializing Your First Project
Operating System: Linux (Ubuntu 20.04+ recommended), macOS (11.0+), or Windows with WSL2. Runtime Environment: Node.js version 16.x or higher. Package Manager: npm (v7+) or Yarn. Version Control: Git installed and configured. Hardware: Minimum 4GB RAM and 500MB of free disk space. Step 1: Preparing Your Environment codexini install

You will be prompted to select a template. For beginners, the "Standard Modular" template is recommended as it includes pre-configured middleware and basic API routing. Step 4: Configuring Dependencies Navigate into your newly created directory: cd my-new-project Install the local dependencies defined in the boilerplate: npm install
To begin, open your terminal or command prompt. It is a best practice to update your package manager to the latest version to ensure compatibility with Codexini’s modular dependencies. For npm users, run: npm install -g npm@latest For Yarn users, run: corepack enable Step 2: Global vs. Local Installation Runtime Environment: Node
