These files are:
-
The
app/
folder is a container for most of your project. This is where youโll put any pages or API routes. -
db/
is where your database configuration goes. If youโre writing models or checking migrations, this is where to go. -
public/
is a folder where you will put any static assets. If you have images, files, or videos which you want to use in your app, this is where to put them. -
integrations/
is a folder to put all third-party integrations like with Stripe, Sentry, etc. -
test/
is a folder where you can put test utilities and integration tests. -
package.json
contains information about your dependencies and devDependencies. If youโre using a tool likenpm
oryarn
, you wonโt have to worry about this much. -
tsconfig.json
is our recommended setup for TypeScript. -
.babel.config.js
,.eslintrc.js
,.env
, etc. ("dotfiles") are configuration files for various bits of JavaScript tooling. -
blitz.config.ts
is for advanced custom configuration of Blitz. Here you can learn how to use it. -
jest.config.js
contains config for Jest tests. You can customize it if needed.
You can read more about it in the File Structure section of the documentation.
Tools included
Blitz comes with a set of tools that corrects and formats your code, facilitating its future maintenance. You can modify their options and even uninstall them.
- ESLint: It lints your code: searches for bad practices and tell you about it. You can customize it via the
.eslintrc.js
, and you can install (or even write) plugins to have it the way you like it. It already comes with theblitz
config, but you can remove it safely. Learn More. - Husky: It adds githooks, little pieces of code that get executed when certain Git events are triggerd. For example,
pre-commit
is triggered just before a commit is created. You can see the current hooks inside.husky/
. If are having problems commiting and pushing, check out ther troubleshooting guide. Learn More. - Prettier: It formats your code to look the same everywhere. You can configure it via the
.prettierrc
file. The.prettierignore
contains the files that should be ignored by Prettier; useful when you have large files or when you want to keep a custom formatting. Learn More.
