Screwed a local installation? Worry not, Create Magento App will set you up!

Easy debugging 🐛

The powerful XDebug tool is a single command-line option flag away from you!

Creating an App

You’ll need to have Node >= 16 on your local development machine. You can use n to switch Node versions between different projects.

You’ll need to install platform specific dependencies for Linux, MacOS and Windows.

To create a new app, you may choose one of the following methods:

NPX

npx create-magento-app my-app

npx comes with npm 5.2+ and higher

NPM

npm init magento-app my-app

npm init <initializer> is available in npm 6+

Yarn

yarn create magento-app my-app

yarn create is available in Yarn 0.25+

AI agent skill 🤖

Working on a Create Magento App project with an AI coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.)? Install the magento-scripts skill so the agent knows to run every PHP/Composer/bin/magento/SQL command through Docker via the project's exec script — never on the host.

Using skills:

npx skills@latest add scandipwa/create-magento-app
