Y-Sweet Quickstart

Clone the example app

# Clone the repo
git clone git@github.com:jamsocket/y-sweet.git
 
# Enter the nextjs directory
cd y-sweet/examples/nextjs
 
# Install dependencies
npm install

Get a connection string

Create a Y-Sweet service in the Jamsocket dashboard. On your new service’s page, click “New connection string”. Give it a description and click “Create”, and copy the connection string. This is a secret key that your app will use to create docs and generate client tokens which give clients the ability to read and write y-sweet documents.

Run the app

Set CONNECTION_STRING as an environment variable.

# Use the connection string you copied from the Jamsocket dashboard
export CONNECTION_STRING="MY_CONNECTION_STRING"

Run the app

npm run dev

This will print out a URL, usually http://localhost:3000, which you can open in your browser:
