Tech Stack

Requirements

  • DDEV
  • Unix-based OS (MacOS, Linux)

If you are on Windows

Use WSL2 and follow the instructions for Unix-based OS. DDEV Documentation is a great starting point.

Commands

  • make install - patches the DDEV craft config and installs Craft CMS. Should only be used as a first time setup.
  • make dev - starts the development server
  • make build - bundles the assets for production

Subsequent Use

  • ddev yarn - for managing frontend packages
  • ddev composer - for managing backend packages
  • ddev craft - exposes the Craft CLI

Critical CSS

To use Critical CSS, you need to manually add the pages that should be pre-rendered to the criticalPages array in vite.config.ts. The pages will be pre-rendered when building and the generated CSS will be inlined in the HTML.
