How to Make a MERN App in 3 Steps

You’ll need a couple of assets before we begin. Gather yourself a banner image (banner.png) and a favicon (favicon.ico) and let’s get started.

Clone the repo into your empty project directory. Don’t forget the trailing dot!

Edit the config object at the top of aa.js. Set the app name and where the assets are located.

The asset directory defaults to a subdirectory within your project folder called assets/ so you can just put your banner.png and favicon.ico in there and be done with it. If you don’t replace them the placeholder assets will be used.

This can take several minutes while it installs the dependencies.

Now just build and start!

You now have a working MERN app on localhost:9090.

Now that everything’s working nicely, take a few seconds to clean up a bit.
